In order to protect from a malicious DNS client that sends many
queries with a SIG(0)-signed message, add a quota of simultaneously
running SIG(0) checks.
This protection can only help when named is using more than one worker
threads. For example, if named is running with the '-n 4' option, and
'sig0checks-quota 2;' is used, then named will make sure to not use
more than 2 workers for the SIG(0) signature checks in parallel, thus
leaving the other workers to serve the remaining clients which do not
use SIG(0)-signed messages.
That limitation is going to change when SIG(0) signature checks are
offloaded to "slow" threads in a future commit.
The 'sig0checks-quota-exempt' ACL option can be used to exempt certain
clients from the quota requirements using their IP or network addresses.
The 'sig0checks-quota-maxwait-ms' option is used to define a maximum
amount of time for named to wait for a quota to appear. If during that
time no new quota becomes available, named will answer to the client
with DNS_R_REFUSED.
