Sometimes it is useful to set a 'floor' on the TTL for records
to be cached. Some sites like to use ridiculously low TTLs for
some reason, and that often is not compatible with slow links.

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 ==)
Tell the user explicitly about their mistakes:
* Unknown options, e.g. -list instead of -dump
or -delete instead of -remove.
* Unknown view names.
* Excess arguments.
Include the view name in `rndc nta -dump` output, for consistency with
the NTA add and remove actions.
When removing an NTA from all views, do not abort with an error if the
NTA was not found in one of the views.
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.
To minimize the effort required to set up IANA root zone mirroring,
define a default master server list for the root zone and use it when
that zone is to be mirrored and no master server list was explicitly
specified. Contents of that list are taken from RFC 7706 and are
subject to change in future releases.
Since the static get_masters_def() function in bin/named/config.c does
exactly what named_zone_configure() in bin/named/zoneconf.c needs to do,
make the former non-static and use it in the latter to prevent code
duplication.
Since mirror zone data is treated as cache data for access control
purposes, configuring a mirror zone and disabling recursion at the same
time would effectively prevent mirror zone data from being used since
disabling recursion also disables cache access to all clients by
default. Even though this behavior can be inhibited by configuration,
mirror zones are a recursive resolver feature and thus recursion is now
required to use them.
Ignore the fact that certain configurations might still trick named into
assuming recursion is enabled when it effectively is not since this
change is not meant to put a hard policy in place but rather just to
prevent accidental mirror zone misuse.
Previous way of handling NOTIFY settings for mirror zones was a bit
tricky: any value of the "notify" option was accepted, but it was
subsequently overridden with dns_notifytype_explicit. Given the way
zone configuration is performed, this resulted in the following
behavior:
- if "notify yes;" was set explicitly at any configuration level or
inherited from default configuration, it was silently changed and so
only hosts specified in "also-notify", if any, were notified,
- if "notify no;" was set at any configuration level, it was
effectively honored since even though zone->notifytype was silently
set to dns_notifytype_explicit, the "also-notify" option was never
processed due to "notify no;" being set.
Effectively, this only allowed the hosts specified in "also-notify" to
be notified, when either "notify yes;" or "notify explicit;" was
explicitly set or inherited from default configuration.
Clean up handling of NOTIFY settings for mirror zones by:
- reporting a configuration error when anything else than "notify no;"
or "notify explicit;" is set for a mirror zone at the zone level,
- overriding inherited "notify yes;" setting with "notify explicit;"
for mirror zones,
- informing the user when the "notify" setting is overridden, unless
the setting in question was inherited from default configuration.
Use a zone's 'type' field instead of the value of its DNS_ZONEOPT_MIRROR
option for checking whether it is a mirror zone. This makes said zone
option and its associated helper function, dns_zone_mirror(), redundant,
so remove them. Remove a check specific to mirror zones from
named_zone_reusable() since another check in that function ensures that
changing a zone's type prevents it from being reused during
reconfiguration.
