In BIND 9.11 and earlier, dig and similar tools used liblwres for
parsing /etc/resolv.conf. After getting a list of servers from
liblwres, a tool would check the address family of each server found and
reject those unusable. When the resulting list of usable servers was
empty, localhost addresses were queried as a fallback.
When liblwres was removed in BIND 9.12, dig and similar tools were
updated to parse /etc/resolv.conf using libirs instead. As part of that
process, the localhost fallback was removed from bin/dig/dighost.c since
the localhost fallback built into libirs was deemed to be sufficient.
However, libirs only falls back to localhost if it does not find any
name servers at all; if it does find any valid nameserver entry in
/etc/resolv.conf, it just returns it to the caller because it is
oblivious to whether the caller supports IPv4 and/or IPv6 or not. The
code in bin/dig/dighost.c subsequently filters the returned list of
servers in get_server_list() according to the requested address family
restrictions. This may result in none of the addresses returned by
libirs being usable, in which case a tool will attempt to work with an
empty server list, causing a hang and subsequently a crash upon user
interruption.
Restore the localhost fallback in bin/dig/dighost.c to prevent the
aforementioned hangs and crashes and ensure recent BIND versions behave
identically to the older ones in the circumstances described above.

If a tool using the routines defined in bin/dig/dighost.c is sent an
interruption signal around the time a connection timeout is scheduled to
fire, connect_timeout() may be executed after destroy_libs() detaches
from the global task (setting 'global_task' to NULL), which results in a
crash upon a UDP retry due to bringup_timer() attempting to create a
timer with 'task' set to NULL. Fix by preventing connect_timeout() from
attempting a retry when shutdown is in progress.

While implementing the new unit testing framework cmocka, it was found that the
BIND 9 code doesn't compile when assertions are disabled or replaced with any
function (such as mock_assert() from cmocka unit testing framework) that's not
directly recognized as assertion by the compiler.
This made the compiler to complain about blocks of code that was recognized as
unreachable before, but now it isn't.
The changes in this commit include:
* assigns default values to couple of local variables,
* moves some return statements around INSIST assertions,
* adds __builtin_unreachable(); annotations after some INSIST assertions,
* fixes one broken assertion (= instead of ==)

Ensure that serve-stale works as expected when returning stale answers
is enabled, the authoritative server does not respond, and there is no
cached answer available.
(cherry picked from commit 27cfe83a38)
Make sure that stale answers returned when the serve-stale feature is
enabled have a TTL matching the value of the stale-answer-ttl setting.

The XSL stylesheet used by the web interface does not currently include
any element which would cause a list of zones configured in each view to
be displayed, making the "Zones" section of the web interface empty
unless some zone has been configured with "zone-statistics full;" and
queried. Since this can be confusing, modify the XSL stylesheet so that
a list of zones configured in each view is displayed in the web
interface.

Contrary to what the documentation states, the "server-addresses"
static-stub zone option does not accept custom port numbers. Fix the
configuration type used by the "server-addresses" option to ensure
documentation matches source code. Remove a check_zoneconf() test which
is unnecessary with this fix in place.

Commit 2bc4c92ed4 causes the resolver to
respond to a client query with FORMERR when all upstream queries sent to
the servers authoritative for QNAME elicit FORMERR responses. This
happens because resolver code returns DNS_R_FORMERR in such a case and
dns_result_torcode() acts as a pass-through for all arguments which are
already a valid RCODE.
The correct RCODE to set in the response returned to the client in the
case described above is SERVFAIL. Make sure this happens by overriding
the RCODE in query_gotanswer(), on the grounds that any format errors in
the client query itself should be caught long before execution reaches
that point. This change should not reduce query error logging accuracy
as the resolver code itself reports the exact reason for returning a
DNS_R_FORMERR result using log_formerr().
