Right before the release API version (LIBINTERFACE, LIBREVISION, LIBAGE)
for older and newer libraries tends to be the same. Given that, commit
hash can't be the determining factor here, Unix time of the commit
should suit us better and is placed after the API version. The commit
hash is preserved as it's useful to see it in the actual report.

The _getcwd() compatibility function on Microsoft CRT requires direct.h
header to pull a proper function prototype.
The (misleading) warning generated:
bin\named\server.c(1074): warning C4047: '==': 'int' differs in levels of indirection from 'void *'
The MSVC detects mismatch of const qualifiers in cfg_map_{first,next}clause
functions just in BIND 9.11. As this is harmless in this particular
case, just disable the warning for these two functions.
The warnings reported:
lib\isccfg\parser.c(2160): warning C4090: '=': different 'const' qualifiers
lib\isccfg\parser.c(2184): warning C4090: '=': different 'const' qualifiers
All our MSVS Project files share the same intermediate directory. We
know that this doesn't cause any problems, so we can just disable the
detection in the project files.
Example of the warning:
warning MSB8028: The intermediate directory (.\Release\) contains files shared from another project (dnssectool.vcxproj). This can lead to incorrect clean and rebuild behavior.

Our vcxproj files set the WarningLevel to Level3, which is too verbose
for a code that needs to be portable. That basically leads to ignoring
all the errors that MSVC produces. This commits downgrades the
WarningLevel to Level1 and enables treating warnings as errors for
Release builds. For the Debug builds the WarningLevel got upgraded to
Level4, and treating warnings as errors is explicitly disabled.
We should eventually make the code clean of all MSVC warnings, but it's
a long way to go for Level4, so it's more reasonable to start at Level1.
For reference[1], these are the warning levels as described by MSVC
documentation:
* /W0 suppresses all warnings. It's equivalent to /w.
* /W1 displays level 1 (severe) warnings. /W1 is the default setting
in the command-line compiler.
* /W2 displays level 1 and level 2 (significant) warnings.
* /W3 displays level 1, level 2, and level 3 (production quality)
warnings. /W3 is the default setting in the IDE.
* /W4 displays level 1, level 2, and level 3 warnings, and all level 4
(informational) warnings that aren't off by default. We recommend
that you use this option to provide lint-like warnings. For a new
project, it may be best to use /W4 in all compilations. This option
helps ensure the fewest possible hard-to-find code defects.
* /Wall displays all warnings displayed by /W4 and all other warnings
that /W4 doesn't include — for example, warnings that are off by
default.
* /WX treats all compiler warnings as errors. For a new project, it
may be best to use /WX in all compilations; resolving all warnings
ensures the fewest possible hard-to-find code defects.

Windows BIND releases produced by GitLab CI are built from Git
repositories, not from release tarballs, which means the "srcid" file is
not present in the top source directory when MSBuild is invoked. This
causes the Git commit hash for such builds to be set to "unset_id".
Enable win32utils/Configure to try determining the commit hash for a
build by invoking Git on the build host if the "srcid" file is not
present (which is what its Unix counterpart does).

Our python code didn't adhere to any coding standard. In this commit, we add
flame8 (https://pypi.org/project/flake8/), and pylint (https://www.pylint.org/).
There's couple of exceptions:
- ans.py scripts are not checked, nor fixed as part of this MR
- pylint's missing-*-docstring and duplicate-code checks have
been disabled via .pylintrc
Both exceptions should be removed in due time.

This test asserts that option "deny-answer-aliases" works correctly
when forwarding requests.
As a matter of example, the behavior expected for a forwarder BIND
instance, having an option such as deny-answer-aliases { "domain"; }
is that when forwarding a request for *.anything-but-domain, it is
expected that it will return SERVFAIL if any answer received has a CNAME
for "*.domain".
BIND wasn't honoring option "deny-answer-aliases" when configured to
forward queries.
Before the fix it was possible for nameservers listed in "forwarders"
option to return CNAME answers pointing to unrelated domains of the
original query, which could be used as a vector for rebinding attacks.
The fix ensures that BIND apply filters even if configured as a forwarder
instance.
ORACLE MySQL 8.0 has dropped the my_bool type, so we need to reinstate
it back when compiling with that version or higher. MariaDB is still
keeping the my_bool type. The numbering between the two (MariaDB 5.x
jumped to MariaDB 10.x) doesn't make the life of the developer easy.
