This should be largely transparent, but it drastically
improves performance and reduces memory foot-print when
configuring large numbers domains of the form
local=/adserver.com/
or
local=/adserver.com/#
Lookup times now grow as log-to-base-2 of the number of domains,
rather than greater than linearly, as before.
The change makes multiple addresses associated with a domain work
address=/example.com/1.2.3.4
address=/example.com/5.6.7.8
It also handles multiple upstream servers for a domain better; using
the same try/retry alogrithms as non domain-specific servers. This
also applies to DNSSEC-generated queries.
Finally, some of the oldest and gnarliest code in dnsmasq has had
a significant clean-up. It's far from perfect, but it _is_ better.
This was the source of a large number of #ifdefs, originally
included for use with old embedded libc versions. I'm
sure no-one wants or needs IPv6-free code these days, so this
is a move towards more maintainable code.
