Petr Špaček 53a5776025 Hyperlink program names to their manual pages
Use the new role :iscman: to replace all occurences or ``binary``
with :iscman:`binary`, creating a hyperlink to the manual page.

Generated using:
    find bin -name *.rst | xargs fgrep --files-with-matches '.. iscman' | xargs -I{} -n1 basename {} .rst > /tmp/progs
    for PROG in $(cat /tmp/progs); do find -name '*.rst' | xargs sed -i -e "s/\`\`$PROG\`\`/:iscman:\`$PROG\`/g"; done

Additional hand-edits were done mainly around filter-aaaa and
filter-a which are program names and and option names at the
same time. Couple more edits was neede to fix .rst syntax broken by
automatic replacement.

Notes for BIND 9.17.21
----------------------
New Features
~~~~~~~~~~~~
- The ``allow-transfer`` option was extended to accept additional
``port`` and ``transport`` parameters, to further restrict zone
transfers to a particular port and/or DNS transport protocol.
:gl:`#2776`
- Extended DNS Error Code 18 - Prohibited (see :rfc:`8194` section
4.19) is now set if query access is denied to the specific client.
:gl:`#1836`
Feature Changes
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- Aggressive Use of DNSSEC-Validated Cache (``synth-from-dnssec``, see
:rfc:`8198`) is now enabled by default again, after having been
disabled in BIND 9.14.8. The implementation of this feature was
reworked to achieve better efficiency and tuned to ignore certain
types of broken NSEC records. Negative answer synthesis is currently
only supported for zones using NSEC. :gl:`#1265`
- The `UseSTD3ASCIIRules`_ flag is now disabled again for libidn2
function calls. Applying additional validation rules for domain names
in :iscman:`dig` (a change introduced in the previous BIND 9 release) caused
characters which are disallowed in hostnames (e.g. underscore ``_``,
wildcard ``*``) to be silently stripped. That change was reverted.
:gl:`#1610`
- Previously, when an incoming TCP connection could not be accepted
because the client closed the connection early, an error message of
``TCP connection failed: socket is not connected`` was logged. This
message has been changed to ``Accepting TCP connection failed: socket
is not connected``. The severity level at which this type of message
is logged has also been changed from ``error`` to ``info`` for the
following triggering events: ``socket is not connected``, ``quota
reached``, and ``soft quota reached``. :gl:`#2700`
- :iscman:`dnssec-dsfromkey` no longer generates DS records from revoked keys.
:gl:`#853`
.. _UseSTD3ASCIIRules: http://www.unicode.org/reports/tr46/#UseSTD3ASCIIRules
Bug Fixes
~~~~~~~~~
- Removing a configured ``catalog-zone`` clause from the configuration,
running :option:`rndc reconfig`, then bringing back the removed
``catalog-zone`` clause and running :option:`rndc reconfig` again caused
:iscman:`named` to crash. This has been fixed. :gl:`#1608`
- The resolver could hang on shutdown due to dispatch resources not
being cleaned up when a TCP connection was reset, or due to dependency
loops in the ADB or the DNSSEC validator. This has been fixed.
:gl:`#3026` :gl:`#3040`
