as "type primary" is preferred over "type master" now, it makes
sense to make "primaries" available as a synonym too.
added a correctness check to ensure "primaries" and "masters"
cannot both be used in the same zone.

The DNS Flag Day 2020 reduced all the EDNS buffer sizes to 1232. In
this commit, we revert the default value for nocookie-udp-size back to
4096 because the option is too obscure and most people don't realize
that they also need to change this configuration option in addition to
max-udp-size.
(cherry picked from commit 79c196fc77)
Since the queries sent towards root and TLD servers are now included in
the count (as a result of the fix for CVE-2020-8616),
"max-recursion-queries" has a higher chance of being exceeded by
non-attack queries. Increase its default value from 75 to 100.

Upon request from Mark, change the configuration of salt to salt
length.
Introduce a new function 'dns_zone_checknsec3aram' that can be used
upon reconfiguration to check if the existing NSEC3 parameters are
in sync with the configuration. If a salt is used that matches the
configured salt length, don't change the NSEC3 parameters.

The DNS Flag Day 2020 aims to remove the IP fragmentation problem from
the UDP DNS communication. In this commit, we implement the minimal
required changes by changing the defaults for `edns-udp-size`,
`max-udp-size` and `nocookie-udp-size` to `1232` (the value picked by
DNS Flag Day 2020).

Certain parts of the existing documentation for the "rrset-order"
statement are incorrect, others are ambiguous. Rework the relevant
section of the ARM to make it clear and up-to-date with the source code.

The option 'dnssec-keys' was introduced in 9.15 and also renamed to
'trust-anchors'. Rename the leftover references to 'trust-anchors'.

The current serve-stale implementation in BIND 9 stores all received
records in the cache for a max-stale-ttl interval (default 12 hours).
This allows DNS operators to turn the serve-stale answers in an event of
large authoritative DNS outage. The caching of the stale answers needs
to be enabled before the outage happens or the feature would be
otherwise useless.
The negative consequence of the default setting is the inevitable
cache-bloat that happens for every and each DNS operator running named.
In this MR, a new configuration option `stale-cache-enable` is
introduced that allows the operators to selectively enable or disable
the serve-stale feature of BIND 9 based on their decision.
The newly introduced option has been disabled by default,
e.g. serve-stale is disabled in the default configuration and has to be
enabled if required.

these keywords were added to the parser as synonyms for "master"
and "slave" but were never hooked in to the configuration of named,
so they were ignored. this has been fixed and the option is now
checked for correctness.

With netmgr we're creating separate socket for each IPv6 interface,
just as with IPv4 - update documentation accordingly.
(cherry picked from commit 6a2100034b)
The release notes were previously built as a separate document
(including the PDF version). It was agreed that this doesn't make much
sense, so the release notes are now included only as an appendix to the
BIND 9 ARM.
(cherry picked from commit 8eb2323ec3)
When we made BIND 9 libraries private to BIND 9, we forgot to remove the
libdns section on "export" libraries from the ARM.
