/**
 * `FETCH` is a wrapper for the [Fetch API](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Fetch_API). This allows dynamically setting DNS records based on an external data source, e.g. the API of your cloud provider.
 *
 * Compared to `fetch` from Fetch API, `FETCH` will call [PANIC](PANIC.md) to terminate the execution of the script, and therefore DNSControl, if a network error occurs.
 *
 * Otherwise the syntax of `FETCH` is the same as `fetch`.
 *
 * `FETCH` is not enabled by default. Please read the warnings below.
 *
 * > WARNING:
 * >
 * > 1. Relying on external sources adds a point of failure. If the external source doesn't work, your script won't either. Please make sure you are aware of the consequences.
 * > 2. Make sure DNSControl only uses verified configuration if you want to use `FETCH`. For example, an attacker can send Pull Requests to your config repo, and have your CI test malicious configurations and make arbitrary HTTP requests. Therefore, `FETCH` must be explicitly enabled with flag `--allow-fetch` on DNSControl invocation.
 *
 * ```javascript
 * D("example.com", REG_MY_PROVIDER, DnsProvider(DSP_MY_PROVIDER), [
 *   A("@", "1.2.3.4"),
 * ]);

 *   // All three options below are optional

/**

 * Unlike CNAMEs, ALIAS records can be used at the zone apex (`@`)
 *
 * Unlike the regular ALIAS directive, AZURE_ALIAS is only supported on AZURE.
 * Attempting to use AZURE_ALIAS on another provider than Azure will result in an error.
 *

 *

 * * A
 * * AAAA
 * * CNAME
 *
 * Target should be the Azure Id representing the target. It starts `/subscription/`. The resource id can be found in https://resources.azure.com/.
 *
 * The Target can :
 *
 * * Point to a public IP resource from a DNS `A/AAAA` record set.
 * You can create an A/AAAA record set and make it an alias record set to point to a public IP resource (standard or basic).
 * The DNS record set changes automatically if the public IP address changes or is deleted.
 * Dangling DNS records that point to incorrect IP addresses are avoided.
 * There is a current limit of 20 alias records sets per resource.
 * * Point to a Traffic Manager profile from a DNS `A/AAAA/CNAME` record set.
 * You can create an A/AAAA or CNAME record set and use alias records to point it to a Traffic Manager profile.
 * It's especially useful when you need to route traffic at a zone apex, as traditional CNAME records aren't supported for a zone apex.
 * For example, say your Traffic Manager profile is myprofile.trafficmanager.net and your business DNS zone is contoso.com.
 * You can create an alias record set of type A/AAAA for contoso.com (the zone apex) and point to myprofile.trafficmanager.net.
 * * Point to an Azure Content Delivery Network (CDN) endpoint.
 * This is useful when you create static websites using Azure storage and Azure CDN.
 * * Point to another DNS record set within the same zone.
 * Alias records can reference other record sets of the same type.
 * For example, a DNS CNAME record set can be an alias to another CNAME record set.
 * This arrangement is useful if you want some record sets to be aliases and some non-aliases.
 *
 * ```javascript
 * D("example.com", REG_MY_PROVIDER, DnsProvider("AZURE_DNS"),

 * # Split Horizon DNS
 *
 * DNSControl supports Split Horizon DNS. Simply

 *
 * To differentiate the different domains, specify the domains as
 * `domain.tld!tag`, such as `example.com!inside` and
 * `example.com!outside`.
 *
 * ```javascript
 * var REG_THIRDPARTY = NewRegistrar("ThirdParty");
 * var DNS_INSIDE = NewDnsProvider("Cloudflare");
 * var DNS_OUTSIDE = NewDnsProvider("bind");
 *
 * D("example.com!inside", REG_THIRDPARTY, DnsProvider(DNS_INSIDE),

 * );
 *
 * D_EXTEND("example.com!inside",
 *   A("internal", "10.99.99.99")
 * );
 * ```
 *
 * A domain name without a `!` is assigned a tag that is the empty
 * string. For example, `example.com` and `example.com!` are equivalent.
 * However, we strongly recommend against using the empty tag, as it
 * risks creating confusion.  In other words, if you have `domain.tld`
 * and `domain.tld!external` you now require humans to remember that
 * `domain.tld` is the external one.  I mean... the internal one.  You
 * may have noticed this mistake, but will your coworkers?  Will you in
 * six months? You get the idea.
 *
 * DNSControl command line flag `--domains` matches the full name (with the "!").  If you
 * define domains `example.com!george` and `example.com!john` then:
 *
 * * `--domains=example.com` will not match either domain.
 * * `--domains='example.com!george'` will match only match the first.
 * * `--domains='example.com!george",example.com!john` will match both.
 *
 * NOTE: The quotes are required if your shell treats `!` as a special
 * character, which is probably does.  If you see an error that mentions

 * ## Example
 *
 * ### Simple example
 *
 * ```javascript

 *
 * ### Advanced example
 *
 * ```javascript

 *   policy: "reject",
 *   subdomainPolicy: "quarantine",
 *   percent: 50,
 *   alignmentSPF: "r",
 *   alignmentDKIM: "strict",

 * insecure    IN  TXT "v=DMARC1; p=none; ruf=mailto:mailauth-reports@example.com; fo=d"
 * ```
 *
 * ### Parameters
 *
 * * `label:` The DNS label for the DMARC record (`_dmarc` prefix is added, default: `"@"`)
 * * `version:` The DMARC version to be used (default: `DMARC1`)
 * * `policy:` The DMARC policy (`p=`), must be one of `"none"`, `"quarantine"`, `"reject"`
 * * `subdomainPolicy:` The DMARC policy for subdomains (`sp=`), must be one of `"none"`, `"quarantine"`, `"reject"` (optional)
 * * `alignmentSPF:` `"strict"`/`"s"` or `"relaxed"`/`"r"` alignment for SPF (`aspf=`, default: `"r"`)
 * * `alignmentDKIM:` `"strict"`/`"s"` or `"relaxed"`/`"r"` alignment for DKIM (`adkim=`, default: `"r"`)
 * * `percent:` Number between `0` and `100`, percentage for which policies are applied (`pct=`, default: `100`)
 * * `rua:` Array of aggregate report targets (optional)
 * * `ruf:` Array of failure report targets (optional)
 * * `failureOptions:` Object or string; Object containing booleans `SPF` and `DKIM`, string is passed raw (`fo=`, default: `"0"`)
 * * `failureFormat:` Format in which failure reports are requested (`rf=`, default: `"afrf"`)
 * * `reportInterval:` Interval in which reports are requested (`ri=`)
 * * `ttl:` Input for `TTL` method (optional)
 *
 * ### Caveats
 *
 * * TXT records are automatically split using `AUTOSPLIT`.

 * simply adding records as if they had been specified in the original
 * [`D()`](D.md).
 *
 * If the domain name does not match an existing domain, but could be a
 * (non-delegated) subdomain of an existing domain, the new records (and
 * metadata) are added with the subdomain part appended to all record
 * names (labels), and targets (as appropriate). See the examples below.
 *
 * Matching the domain name to previously-defined domains is done using a
 * `longest match` algorithm.  If `domain.tld` and `sub.domain.tld` are

/**
 * `IGNORE()` makes it possible for DNSControl to share management of a domain
 * with an external system.  The parameters of `IGNORE()` indicate which records
 * are managed elsewhere and should not be modified or deleted.
 *
 * Use case: Suppose a domain is managed by both DNSControl and a third-party
 * system. This creates a problem because DNSControl will try to delete records
 * inserted by the other system.  The other system may get confused and re-insert
 * those records.  The two systems will get into an endless update cycle where
 * each will revert changes made by the other in an endless loop.
 *
 * To solve this problem simply include `IGNORE()` statements that identify which
 * records are managed elsewhere.  DNSControl will not modify or delete those
 * records.
 *
 * Technically `IGNORE_NAME` is a promise that DNSControl will not modify or
 * delete existing records that match particular patterns. It is like
 * [`NO_PURGE`](../domain/NO_PURGE.md) that matches only specific records.
 *
 * Including a record that is ignored is considered an error and may have
 * undefined behavior. This safety check can be disabled using the
 * [`DISABLE_IGNORE_SAFETY_CHECK`](../domain/DISABLE_IGNORE_SAFETY_CHECK.md) feature.
 *
 * ## Syntax
 *
 * The `IGNORE()` function can be used with up to 3 parameters:
 *
 * ```javascript
 * IGNORE(labelSpec, typeSpec, targetSpec):
 * IGNORE(labelSpec, typeSpec):
 * IGNORE(labelSpec):
 * ```
 *
 * * `labelSpec` is a glob that matches the DNS label. For example `"foo"` or `"foo*"`.  `"*"` matches all labels, as does the empty string (`""`).
 * * `typeSpec` is a comma-separated list of DNS types.  For example `"A"` matches DNS A records, `"A,CNAME"` matches both A and CNAME records. `"*"` matches any DNS type, as does the empty string (`""`).
 * * `targetSpec` is a glob that matches the DNS target. For example `"foo"` or `"foo*"`.  `"*"` matches all targets, as does the empty string (`""`).
 *
 * `typeSpec` and `targetSpec` default to `"*"` if they are omitted.
 *
 * ## Globs
 *
 * The `labelSpec` and `targetSpec` parameters supports glob patterns in the style
 * of the [gobwas/glob](https://github.com/gobwas/glob) library.  All of the
 * following patterns will work:
 *
 * * `IGNORE("*.foo")` will ignore all records in the style of `bar.foo`, but will not ignore records using a double subdomain, such as `foo.bar.foo`.
 * * `IGNORE("**.foo")` will ignore all subdomains of `foo`, including double subdomains.
 * * `IGNORE("?oo")` will ignore all records of three symbols ending in `oo`, for example `foo` and `zoo`. It will not match `.`
 * * `IGNORE("[abc]oo")` will ignore records `aoo`, `boo` and `coo`. `IGNORE("[a-c]oo")` is equivalent.
 * * `IGNORE("[!abc]oo")` will ignore all three symbol records ending in `oo`, except for `aoo`, `boo`, `coo`.        `IGNORE("[!a-c]oo")` is equivalent.
 * * `IGNORE("{bar,[fz]oo}")` will ignore `bar`, `foo` and `zoo`.
 * * `IGNORE("\\*.foo")` will ignore the literal record `*.foo`.
 *
 * ## Typical Usage
 *
 * General examples:
 *
 * ```javascript
 * D("example.com", REG_MY_PROVIDER, DnsProvider(DSP_MY_PROVIDER),
 *   IGNORE("foo"), // matches any records on foo.example.com
 *   IGNORE("baz", "A"), // matches any A records on label baz.example.com
 *   IGNORE("*", "MX", "*"), // matches all MX records
 *   IGNORE("*", "CNAME", "dev-*"), // matches CNAMEs with targets prefixed `dev-*`
 *   IGNORE("bar", "A,MX"), // ignore only A and MX records for name bar
 *   IGNORE("*", "*", "dev-*"), // Ignore targets with a `dev-` prefix
 *   IGNORE("*", "A", "1\.2\.3\."), // Ignore targets in the 1.2.3.0/24 CIDR block
 * END);
 * ```
 *
 * Ignore Let's Encrypt (ACME) validation records:
 *
 * ```javascript
 * D("example.com", REG_MY_PROVIDER, DnsProvider(DSP_MY_PROVIDER),
 *   IGNORE("_acme-challenge", "TXT"),
 *   IGNORE("_acme-challenge.**", "TXT"),
 * END);
 * ```
 *
 * Ignore DNS records typically inserted by Microsoft ActiveDirectory:
 *
 * ```javascript
 * D("example.com", REG_MY_PROVIDER, DnsProvider(DSP_MY_PROVIDER),
 *   IGNORE("_gc", "SRV"), // General Catalog
 *   IGNORE("_gc.**", "SRV"), // General Catalog
 *   IGNORE("_kerberos", "SRV"), // Kerb5 server
 *   IGNORE("_kerberos.**", "SRV"), // Kerb5 server
 *   IGNORE("_kpasswd", "SRV"), // Kpassword
 *   IGNORE("_kpasswd.**", "SRV"), // Kpassword
 *   IGNORE("_ldap", "SRV"), // LDAP
 *   IGNORE("_ldap.**", "SRV"), // LDAP
 *   IGNORE("_msdcs", "NS"), // Microsoft Domain Controller Service
 *   IGNORE("_msdcs.**", "NS"), // Microsoft Domain Controller Service
 *   IGNORE("_vlmcs", "SRV"), // FQDN of the KMS host
 *   IGNORE("_vlmcs.**", "SRV"), // FQDN of the KMS host
 *   IGNORE("domaindnszones", "A"),
 *   IGNORE("domaindnszones.**", "A"),
 *   IGNORE("forestdnszones", "A"),
 *   IGNORE("forestdnszones.**", "A"),
 * END);
 * ```
 *
 * ## Detailed examples
 *
 * Here are some examples that illustrate how matching works.
 *
 * All the examples assume the following DNS records are the "existing" records
 * that a third-party is maintaining. (Don't be confused by the fact that we're
 * using DNSControl notation for the records. Pretend some other system inserted them.)
 *
 * ```javascript
 * D("example.com", REG_MY_PROVIDER, DnsProvider(DSP_MY_PROVIDER),
 *     A("@", "151.101.1.69"),
 *     A("www", "151.101.1.69"),
 *     A("foo", "1.1.1.1"),
 *     A("bar", "2.2.2.2"),
 *     CNAME("cshort", "www"),
 *     CNAME("cfull", "www.plts.org."),
 *     CNAME("cfull2", "www.bar.plts.org."),
 *     CNAME("cfull3", "bar.www.plts.org."),
 * END);
 *
 * D_EXTEND("more.example.com",
 *     A("foo", "1.1.1.1"),
 *     A("bar", "2.2.2.2"),
 *     CNAME("mshort", "www"),
 *     CNAME("mfull", "www.plts.org."),
 *     CNAME("mfull2", "www.bar.plts.org."),
 *     CNAME("mfull3", "bar.www.plts.org."),
 * END);
 * ```
 *
 * ```javascript
 *     IGNORE("@", "", ""),
 *     // Would match:
 *     //    foo.example.com. A 1.1.1.1
 *     //    foo.more.example.com. A 1.1.1.1

 *

 * ```
 *
 * ```javascript
 *     IGNORE("foo.**", "", ""),
 *     // Would match:
 *     //    foo.more.example.com. A 1.1.1.1

 *     // Would match:
 *     //    foo.example.com. A 1.1.1.1
 *     //    foo.more.example.com. A 1.1.1.1
 * ```
 *
 * ```javascript
 *     //IGNORE("", "", "www"),
 *     // Would match:
 *     //    none
 * ```
 *
 * ```javascript
 *     IGNORE("", "", "*bar*"),
 *     // Would match:
 *     //    cfull2.example.com. CNAME www.bar.plts.org.
 *     //    cfull3.example.com. CNAME bar.www.plts.org.
 *     //    mfull2.more.example.com. CNAME www.bar.plts.org.
 *     //    mfull3.more.example.com. CNAME bar.www.plts.org.
 * ```
 *
 * ```javascript
 *     IGNORE("", "", "bar.**"),
 *     // Would match:
 *     //    cfull3.example.com. CNAME bar.www.plts.org.
 *     //    mfull3.more.example.com. CNAME bar.www.plts.org.
 * ```
 *
 * ## Conflict handling
 *
 * It is considered as an error for a `dnsconfig.js` to both ignore and insert the
 * same record in a domain. This is done as a safety mechanism.
 *
 * This will generate an error:

 *     ...
 * ```
 *
 * To disable this safety check, add the `DISABLE_IGNORE_SAFETY_CHECK` statement
 * to the `D()`.
 *
 * ```javascript
 * D("example.com", REG_MY_PROVIDER, DnsProvider(DSP_MY_PROVIDER),
 *     DISABLE_IGNORE_SAFETY_CHECK,
 *     ...
 *     TXT("myhost", "mytext"),
 *     IGNORE("myhost", "*", "*"),
 *     ...
 * ```
 *
 * FYI: Previously DNSControl permitted disabling this check on
 * a per-record basis using `IGNORE_NAME_DISABLE_SAFETY_CHECK`:
 *
 * The `IGNORE_NAME_DISABLE_SAFETY_CHECK` feature does not exist in the diff2
 * world and its use will result in a validation error. Use the above example
 * instead.
 *
 * ```javascript
 *     // THIS NO LONGER WORKS! Use DISABLE_IGNORE_SAFETY_CHECK instead. See above.
 *     TXT("myhost", "mytext", IGNORE_NAME_DISABLE_SAFETY_CHECK),
 * ```
 *
 * ## Caveats
 *
 * WARNING: Two systems updating the same domain is complex.  Complex things are risky. Use `IGNORE()`
 * as a last resort. Even then, test extensively.
 *
 * * There is no locking.  If the external system and DNSControl make updates at the exact same time, the results are undefined.
 * * IGNORE` works fine with records inserted into a `D()` via `D_EXTEND()`. The matching is done on the resulting FQDN of the label or target.
 * * `targetSpec` does not match fields other than the primary target.  For example, `MX` records have a target hostname plus a priority. There is no way to match the priority.
 * * The BIND provider can not ignore records it doesn't know about.  If it does not have access to an existing zonefile, it will create a zonefile from scratch. That new zonefile will not have any external records.  It will seem like they were not ignored, but in reality BIND didn't have visibility to them so that they could be ignored.

 *
 * ## Description ##
 *
 * Strictly follows [RFC 1876](https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc1876).
 *
 * A LOC record holds a geographical position. In the zone file, it may look like:
 *
 * ```text
 * ;
 * pipex.net.                    LOC   52 14 05 N 00 08 50 E 10m
 * ```
 *
 * On the wire, it is in a binary format.
 *
 * A use case for LOC is suggested in the RFC:
 *
 * > Some uses for the LOC RR have already been suggested, including the
 *    USENET backbone flow maps, a "visual traceroute" application showing
 *    the geographical path of an IP packet, and network management
 *    applications that could use LOC RRs to generate a map of hosts and
 *    routers being managed.
 *
 * There is the UK based [https://find.me.uk](https://find.me.uk/) whereby you can do:
 *
 * ```sh
 * dig loc <uk-postcode>.find.me.uk
 * ```
 *
 * There are some behaviours that you should be aware of, however:
 *
 * > If omitted, minutes and seconds default to zero, size defaults to 1m,
 *    horizontal precision defaults to 10000m, and vertical precision
 *    defaults to 10m.  These defaults are chosen to represent typical
 *    ZIP/postal code area sizes, since it is often easy to find
 *    approximate geographical location by ZIP/postal code.
 *
 * Alas, the world does not revolve around US ZIP codes, but here we are. Internally,
 * the LOC record type will supply defaults where values were absent on DNS import.
 * One must supply the `LOC()` js helper all parameters. If that seems like too
 * much work, see also helper functions:
 *
 *  * [`LOC_BUILDER_DD({})`](../record/LOC_BUILDER_DD.md) - build a `LOC` by supplying only **d**ecimal **d**egrees.
 *  * [`LOC_BUILDER_DMS_STR({})`](../record/LOC_BUILDER_DMS_STR.md) - accepts DMS 33°51′31″S 151°12′51″E
 *  * [`LOC_BUILDER_DMM_STR({})`](../record/LOC_BUILDER_DMM_STR.md) - accepts DMM 25.24°S 153.15°E
 *  * [`LOC_BUILDER_STR({})`](../record/LOC_BUILDER_STR.md) - tries the cooordinate string in all `LOC_BUILDER_DM*_STR()` functions until one works
 *
 * ## Format ##
 *
 * The coordinate format for `LOC()` is:
 *
 * `degrees,minutes,seconds,[NnSs],deg,min,sec,[EeWw],altitude,size,horizontal_precision,vertical_precision`
 *
 * ## Examples ##
 *
 * ```javascript
 * D("example.com", REG_MY_PROVIDER, DnsProvider(DSP_MY_PROVIDER),
 *   // LOC "subdomain", d1, m1, s1, "[NnSs]", d2, m2, s2, "[EeWw]", alt, siz, hp, vp)
 *   //42 21 54     N  71 06  18     W -24m 30m
 *   , LOC("@", 42, 21, 54,     "N", 71,  6, 18,     "W", -24,   30,    0,  0)
 *   //42 21 43.952 N  71 5   6.344  W -24m 1m 200m 10m

 *
 * It defaults to a setup without support for legacy Skype for Business applications.
 * It doesn't set up SPF or DMARC. See [`SPF_BUILDER`](/language-reference/record-modifiers/dmarc_builder) and [`DMARC_BUILDER`](/language-reference/record-modifiers/spf_builder).
 *
 * ## Example
 *
 * ### Simple example
 *
 * ```javascript
 * M365_BUILDER({
 *     initialDomain: "example.onmicrosoft.com",
 * });
 * ```
 *
 * This sets up `MX` records, Autodiscover, and DKIM.
 *
 * ### Advanced example
 *
 * ```javascript
 * M365_BUILDER({
 *     label: "test",
 *     mx: false,
 *     autodiscover: false,
 *     dkim: false,
 *     mdm: true,
 *     domainGUID: "test-example-com", // Can be automatically derived in this case, if example.com is the context.
 *     initialDomain: "example.onmicrosoft.com",
 * });
 * ```
 *
 * This sets up Mobile Device Management only.
 *
 * ### Parameters
 *
 * * `label` The label of the Microsoft 365 domain, useful if it is a subdomain (default: `"@"`)
 * * `mx` Set an `MX` record? (default: `true`)
 * * `autodiscover` Set Autodiscover `CNAME` record? (default: `true`)
 * * `dkim` Set DKIM `CNAME` records? (default: `true`)
 * * `skypeForBusiness` Set Skype for Business/Microsoft Teams records? (default: `false`)
 * * `mdm` Set Mobile Device Management records? (default: `false`)
 * * `domainGUID` The GUID of _this_ Microsoft 365 domain (default: `<label>.<context>` with `.` replaced by `-`, no default if domain contains dashes)
 * * `initialDomain` The initial domain of your Microsoft 365 tenant/account, ends in `onmicrosoft.com`
 *
 * @see https://docs.dnscontrol.org/language-reference/domain-modifiers/m365_builder

/**
 * `NAMESERVER()` instructs DNSControl to inform the domain"s registrar where to find this zone.
 * For some registrars this will also add NS records to the zone itself.
 *
 * This takes exactly one argument: the name of the nameserver. It must end with
 * a "." if it is a FQDN, just like all targets.
 *
 * This is different than the [`NS()`](NS.md) function, which inserts NS records
 * in the current zone and accepts a label. [`NS()`](NS.md) is useful for downward
 * delegations. `NAMESERVER()` is for informing upstream delegations.
 *
 * For more information, refer to [this page](../../nameservers.md).
 *
 * ```javascript
 * D("example.com", REG_MY_PROVIDER, DnsProvider(DSP_MY_PROVIDER),
 *   DnsProvider(route53, 0),
 *   // Replace the nameservers:
 *   NAMESERVER("ns1.myserver.com."),
 *   NAMESERVER("ns2.myserver.com."),
 * );
 *
 * D("example2.com", REG_MY_PROVIDER, DnsProvider(DSP_MY_PROVIDER),
 *   // Add these two additional nameservers to the existing list of nameservers.
 *   NAMESERVER("ns1.myserver.com."),
 *   NAMESERVER("ns2.myserver.com."),
 * );
 * ```
 *
 * # The difference between NS() and NAMESERVER()
 *
 * Nameservers are one of the least
 * understood parts of DNS, so a little extra explanation is required.
 *
 * * [`NS()`](NS.md) lets you add an NS record to a zone, just like [`A()`](A.md) adds an A
 *   record to the zone. This is generally used to delegate a subzone.
 *
 * * The `NAMESERVER()` directive speaks to the Registrar about how the parent should delegate the zone.
 *
 * Since the parent zone could be completely unrelated to the current
 * zone, changes made by `NAMESERVER()` have to be done by an API call to
 * the registrar, who then figures out what to do. For example, if I
 * use `NAMESERVER()` in the zone `stackoverflow.com`, DNSControl talks to
 * the registrar who does the hard work of talking to the people that
 * control `.com`.  If the domain was `gmeet.io`, the registrar does
 * the right thing to talk to the people that control `.io`.
 *
 * (A better name might have been `PARENTNAMESERVER()` but we didn"t
 * think of that at the time.)
 *
 * Each registrar handles delegations differently.  Most use
 * the `NAMESERVER()` targets to update the delegation, adding
 * `NS` records to the parent zone as required.
 * Some providers restrict the names to hosts they control.
 * Others may require you to add the `NS` records to the parent domain
 * manually.
 *
 * # How to prevent changing the parent NS records?
 *
 * If dnsconfig.js has zero `NAMESERVER()` commands for a domain, it will
 * use the API to remove all non-default nameservers.
 *
 * If dnsconfig.js has 1 or more `NAMESERVER()` commands for a domain, it
 * will use the API to add those nameservers (unless, of course,
 * they already exist).
 *
 * So how do you tell DNSControl not to make any changes at all?  Use the
 * special Registrar called "NONE". It makes no changes.
 *
 * It looks like this:
 *
 * ```javascript
 * var REG_THIRDPARTY = NewRegistrar("ThirdParty");
 * D("example.com", REG_THIRDPARTY,
 *   ...
 * )

/**
 * ## Introduction
 *
 * NAPTR adds a NAPTR record to the domain. Various formats exist. NAPTR is a part of DDDS such as ENUM (defined by [RFC 6116](https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc6116)), SIP ([RFC 3263](https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc3263)), S-NAPTR ([RFC 3958](https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc3958)) or U-NAPTR ([RFC 4848](https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc4848)).
 *
 * ## Parameters
 *
 * ### `subdomain`
 *
 * Subdomain of the domain (e.g. `example.com`) this entry represents.
 *
 * #### E164
 * In the case of E164 (e.g. `3.2.1.5.5.5.0.0.8.1.e164.arpa.`) - where [`terminalflag`](#terminalflag) is `u` - the final digit of the zone it represents, or the zone apex record `@`. For example, the ARPA zone `3.2.1.5.5.5.0.0.8.1.e164.arpa.` represents the phone number block 001800555123*X* (or the synonymous +1800555123*X*), where *X* is the final digit of the phone number string, i.e. the [`subdomain`](#subdomain).
 *
 * ### `order`
 *
 * ordinal (1st, 2nd, 3rd, ...) 16 bit number (2^16 i.e. <= 65535) which determines lower entries are sent first (`1`), and  higher, last (`65535`).
 *
 * ### `preference`
 *
 * 16 bit number (2^16 i.e. <= 65535). At the DNS server, this entry is summed with other entries of identical [`order`](#order) value and normalised to a fraction of 100 percent, determining the likelihood that this record is returned by the DNS system. Effective for load balancing services.
 *
 * ### `terminalflag`
 * (case insensitive)
 *
 * One of [AaSsUuPp], where:
 *  * `a` (terminal lookup) means that the output of the [`target`](#target) rewrite will be a domain-name for which an [`A`](A.md) or [`AAAA`](AAAA.md) record should be queried
 *  * `p` Protocol specific
 *  * `s` (terminal lookup) indicates that [`target`](#target) points to a [`SRV`](SRV.md) record
 *  * `u` (terminal lookup) indicates that [`target`](#target) is a (SIP) URN or URI
 *  * "" (empty string) - a non-terminal condition defined by the ENUM application ([RFC 6116](https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc6116)) to indicate that regexp is empty and the replace field contains the FQDN of another NAPTR RR
 *
 * Mutually exclusive; more than one cannot be combined in the same record. Since there is no place for a port specification in the NAPTR record, when the `a` [`terminalflag`](#terminalflag) is used, the specified protocol must be running on its default port (Note that at least SIP URI forms allow ports to be specified).
 *
 * Flags called 'terminal' halt the looping rewrite algorithm of DNS.
 *
 * ### `service`
 * (case insensitive)
 *
 * *`protocol+rs`* where *`protocol`* defines the protocol used by the DDDS application. *`rs`* is the resolution service. There may be 0 or more resolution services each separated by `+`. ENUM further defines this to be a type field and allows a subtype separated by a colon (`:`).
 *
 * For E164, typically one of `E2U+SIP` (or `E2U+sip`) or `E2U+email`. For SIP, typically `SIPS+D2T` for TCP/TLS `sips:` URIs, or TLS `sip:` URIs, or `SIP+D2T` for TCP based SIP, or `SIP+D2U` for UDP based SIP. Note that SCTP, WS and WSS are also available.
 *
 * Valid [IANA registered services for ENUM](https://www.iana.org/assignments/enum-services/enum-services.xhtml#enum-services-1):
 * ```text
 * E2U+pres
 * E2U+voice:tel+sms:tel (compound form)
 * E2U+web:http
 * E2U+sms:mailto
 * E2U+sms:tel
 * E2U+sip
 * E2U+pstn
 * E2U+tel
 * ```
 *
 * Valid [IANA registered SIP services](https://www.iana.org/assignments/sip-table/sip-table.xhtml#sip-table-1):
 *
 * ```text
 * SIP+D2T
 * SIPS+D2T
 * SIP+D2U
 * SIP+D2S
 * SIPS+D2S
 * SIP+D2W
 * SIPS+D2W
 * ```
 *
 * ### `regexp`
 *
 * [Syntax: `delimit ere delimit substitution delimit flag`] an ERE or extended regular expression which captures any address string `.*` found between the line start `^` and finish `$` anchors (i.e. `!^.*$!`), and redirects it to the stated `sip:`, `sips:`, `tel:` or `mailto:` URI. Other URI forms may be possible. Other delimiter (`!`) forms are possible. The final `flag`, if any, shall be `i`, i.e. case **i**nsensitive.
 *
 * Examples (taken from [Zytrax](https://www.zytrax.com/books/dns/ch8/naptr.html#regex-examples)):
 * ```text
 * # AUS = Application User String
 * # all examples use ! as the delimiter for consistency
 * # and simplicity
 * # AUS = +441115551234 in all cases
 *
 * !(\\+441115551234)!tel:\\1!
 * # explicit check of all characters in string
 * # the +441115551234 because of () creates a group
 * # which is referenced by \1 in substitution
 * # result = tel:+441115551234
 *
 * !^(\\+441115551234)$!tel:\\1!
 * # this is functionally identical to the expression
 * # above but uses ^ and $ to anchor both ends of
 * # the expression, there is no technical reason to do this
 * # within an ere and the RFCs are silent on the topic
 * # result = tel:+441115551234
 *
 * !(.+)!tel:\\1!
 * # given the AUS of +441115551234
 * # the expression (.+) sets back ref 1 = +441115551234
 * # . = any character, + = 0 or more times
 * # result = tel:+441115551212
 *
 * !\\+44111(.+)!sip:775\\1@some.example.com!
 * # given the AUS of +441115551234 provides partial replacement
 * # removes the 44111 part and substitutes 775
 * # result = sip:7755551234@some.example.com
 *
 * !.*!sip:james@sip.example.com!
 * # reads and ignores AUS using .*
 * # and is called a simple replacement expression
 * # result = sip:james@sip.example.com
 * ```
 *
 * U-NAPTR supported regexp fields must be of the form (from the RFC):
 *
 * ```text
 * "!.*!<URI>!"
 * # the .* (any character 1 or more times)
 * # is fixed by the RFC and essentially ignores
 * # the AUS data. The result will always be URI
 * ```
 *
 * ### `target`
 *
 * A (replacement) record for the target - format depends on [`terminalflag`](#terminalflag).
 *  * A [`SRV`](SRV.md), if the [`terminalflag`](#terminalflag) is `s` (syntax: *`_Service._Proto.Name`*)
 *  * An [`A`](A.md) or [`AAAA`](AAAA.md) if the [`terminalflag`](#terminalflag) is `a`
 *  * URI if the [`terminalflag`](#terminalflag) is `u`
 *
 * Not all examples are guaranteed to be standards compliant, or correct.
 *
 * ## Examples
 *
 * ### Examples for e164 ARPA:
 *
 * Individual e164 records
 *
 * ```javascript
 * D("3.2.1.5.5.5.0.0.8.1.e164.arpa.", REG_MY_PROVIDER, DnsProvider(R53),

/**
 * `NO_PURGE` indicates that existing records should not be deleted from a domain.
 * Records will be added and updated, but not removed.
 *
 * Suppose a domain is managed by both DNSControl and a third-party system. This
 * creates a problem because DNSControl will try to delete records inserted by the
 * other system.
 *
 * By setting `NO_PURGE` on a domain, this tells DNSControl not to delete the
 * records found in the domain.
 *
 * It is similar to [`IGNORE`](domain/IGNORE.md) but more general.
 *
 * The original reason for `NO_PURGE` was that a legacy system was adopting
 * DNSControl. Previously the domain was managed via Microsoft DNS Server's GUI.
 * ActiveDirectory was in use, so various records were being inserted behind the
 * scenes.  It was decided to use DNSControl to simply insert a few records.  The
 * `NO_PURGE` setting instructed DNSControl not to delete the existing records.
 *
 * In this example DNSControl will insert "foo.example.com" into the zone, but
 * otherwise leave the zone alone.  Changes to "foo"'s IP address will update the
 * record. Removing the A("foo", ...) record from DNSControl will leave the record
 * in place.
 *
 * ```javascript
 * D("example.com", REG_MY_PROVIDER, DnsProvider(DSP_MY_PROVIDER), NO_PURGE,
 *   A("foo","1.2.3.4")
 * );
 * ```
 *
 * The main caveat of `NO_PURGE` is that intentionally deleting records becomes
 * more difficult. Suppose a `NO_PURGE` zone has an record such as A("ken",
 * "1.2.3.4"). Removing the record from dnsconfig.js will not delete "ken" from
 * the domain. DNSControl has no way of knowing the record was deleted from the
 * file  The DNS record must be removed manually.  Users of `NO_PURGE` are prone
 * to finding themselves with an accumulation of orphaned DNS records. That's easy
 * to fix for a small zone but can be a big mess for large zones.
 *
 * ## Support
 *
 * Prior to DNSControl v4.0.0, not all providers supported `NO_PURGE`.
 *
 * With introduction of `diff2` algorithm (enabled by default in v4.0.0),
 * `NO_PURGE` works with all providers.
 *
 * ## See also
 *
 * * [`PURGE`](domain/PURGE.md) is the default, thus this command is a no-op
 * * [`IGNORE`](domain/IGNORE.md) is similar to `NO_PURGE` but is more selective
 *

/**
 * PTR adds a PTR record to the domain.
 *
 * The name is normally a relative label for the domain, or a FQDN that ends with `.`.  If magic mode is enabled (see below) it can also be an IP address, which will be replaced by the proper string automatically, thus
 * saving the user from having to reverse the IP address manually.
 *
 * Target should be a string representing the FQDN of a host.  Like all FQDNs in DNSControl, it must end with a `.`.
 *
 * **Magic Mode:**
 *
 * PTR records are complex and typos are common. Therefore DNSControl
 * enables features to save labor and
 * prevent typos.  This magic is only
 * enabled when the domain ends with `in-addr.arpa.` or `ipv6.arpa.`.
 *
 * *Automatic IP-to-reverse:* If the name is a valid IP address, DNSControl will replace it with
 * a string that is appropriate for the domain. That is, if the domain
 * ends with `in-addr.arpa` (no `.`) and name is a valid IPv4 address, the name
 * will be replaced with the correct string to make a reverse lookup for that address.
 * IPv6 is properly handled too.
 *
 * *Extra Validation:* DNSControl considers it an error to include a name that
 * is inappropriate for the domain.  For example
 * `PTR("1.2.3.4", "f.co.")` is valid for the domain `D("3.2.1.in-addr.arpa",`
 *  but DNSControl will generate an error if the domain is `D("9.9.9.in-addr.arpa",`.
 * This is because `1.2.3.4` is contained in `1.2.3.0/24` but not `9.9.9.0/24`.
 * This validation works for IPv6, IPv4, and
 * RFC2317 "Classless in-addr.arpa delegation" domains.
 *
 * *Automatic truncation:* DNSControl will automatically truncate FQDNs
 * as needed.
 * If the name is a FQDN ending with `.`, DNSControl will verify that the
 * name is contained within the CIDR block implied by domain.  For example
 * if name is `4.3.2.1.in-addr.arpa.` (note the trailing `.`)
 * and the domain is `2.1.in-addr.arpa` (no trailing `.`)
 * then the name will be replaced with `4.3`.  Note that the output
 * of `REV("1.2.3.4")` is `4.3.2.1.in-addr.arpa.`, which means the following
 * are all equivalent:
 *
 * * `PTR(REV("1.2.3.4"), `
 * * `PTR("4.3.2.1.in-addr.arpa."), `
 * * `PTR("4.3",`    // Assuming the domain is `2.1.in-addr.arpa`
 *
 * All magic is RFC2317-aware. We use the first format listed in the
 * RFC for both [`REV()`](../global/REV.md) and `PTR()`. The format is
 * `FIRST/MASK.C.B.A.in-addr.arpa` where `FIRST` is the first IP address
 * of the zone, `MASK` is the netmask of the zone (25-31 inclusive),
 * and A, B, C are the first 3 octets of the IP address. For example
 * `172.20.18.130/27` is located in a zone named
 * `128/27.18.20.172.in-addr.arpa`
 *
 * ```javascript
 * D(REV("1.2.3.0/24"), REGISTRAR, DnsProvider(BIND),
 *   PTR("1", "foo.example.com."),
 *   PTR("2", "bar.example.com."),
 *   PTR("3", "baz.example.com."),
 *   // If the first parameter is a valid IP address, DNSControl will generate the correct name:
 *   PTR("1.2.3.10", "ten.example.com."),    // "10"
 * );
 * ```
 *
 * ```javascript
 * D(REV("9.9.9.128/25"), REGISTRAR, DnsProvider(BIND),
 *   PTR("9.9.9.129", "first.example.com."),
 * );
 * ```
 *
 * ```javascript
 * D(REV("2001:db8:302::/48"), REGISTRAR, DnsProvider(BIND),
 *   PTR("1.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0", "foo.example.com."),  // 2001:db8:302::1
 *   // If the first parameter is a valid IP address, DNSControl will generate the correct name:
 *   PTR("2001:db8:302::2", "two.example.com."),                          // "2.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0"
 *   PTR("2001:db8:302::3", "three.example.com."),                        // "3.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0"
 * );
 * ```
 *
 * In the future we plan on adding a flag to [`A()`](A.md) which will insert
 * the correct PTR() record if the appropriate `.arpa` domain has been

/**
 * `R53_ALIAS` is a Route53 specific virtual record type that points a record at either another record or an AWS entity (like a Cloudfront distribution, an ELB, etc...). It is analogous to a `CNAME`, but is usually resolved at request-time and served as an `A` record. Unlike `CNAME` records, `ALIAS` records can be used at the zone apex (`@`)
 *
 * Unlike the regular [`ALIAS`](ALIAS.md) directive, `R53_ALIAS` is only supported on Route53. Attempting to use `R53_ALIAS` on another provider than Route53 will result in an error.
 *
 * The name should be the relative label for the domain.
 *
 * Target should be a string representing the target. If it is a single label we will assume it is a relative name on the current domain. If it contains *any* dots, it should be a fully qualified domain name, ending with a `.`.
 *
 * The Target can be any of:
 *
 * * _CloudFront distribution_: in this case specify the domain name that CloudFront assigned when you created your distribution (note that your CloudFront distribution must include an alternate domain name that matches the record you're adding)
 * * _Elastic Beanstalk environment_: specify the `CNAME` attribute for the environment. The environment must have a regionalized domain name. To get the `CNAME`, you can use either the [AWS Console](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/elasticbeanstalk/latest/dg/customdomains.html), [AWS Elastic Beanstalk API](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/elasticbeanstalk/latest/api/API_DescribeEnvironments.html), or the [AWS CLI](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/reference/elasticbeanstalk/describe-environments.html).
 * * _ELB load balancer_: specify the DNS name that is associated with the load balancer. To get the DNS name you can use either the AWS Console (on the EC2 page, choose Load Balancers, select the right one, choose the description tab), [ELB API](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/elasticloadbalancing/latest/APIReference/API_DescribeLoadBalancers.html), the [AWS ELB CLI](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/reference/elb/describe-load-balancers.html), or the [AWS ELBv2 CLI](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/reference/elbv2/describe-load-balancers.html).
 * * _S3 bucket_ (configured as website): specify the domain name of the Amazon S3 website endpoint in which you configured the bucket (for instance s3-website-us-east-2.amazonaws.com). For the available values refer to the [Amazon S3 Website Endpoints](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/general/latest/gr/rande.html#s3_region).
 * * _Another Route53 record_: specify the value of the name of another record in the same hosted zone.
 *
 * For all the target type, excluding 'another record', you have to specify the `Zone ID` of the target. This is done by using the [`R53_ZONE`](../record/R53_ZONE.md) record modifier.
 *
 * The zone id can be found depending on the target type:
 *
 * * _CloudFront distribution_: specify `Z2FDTNDATAQYW2`
 * * _Elastic Beanstalk environment_: specify the hosted zone ID for the region in which the environment has been created. Refer to the [List of regions and hosted Zone IDs](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/general/latest/gr/rande.html#elasticbeanstalk_region).
 * * _ELB load balancer_: specify the value of the hosted zone ID for the load balancer. You can find it in [the List of regions and hosted Zone IDs](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/general/latest/gr/rande.html#elb_region)
 * * _S3 bucket_ (configured as website): specify the hosted zone ID for the region that you created the bucket in. You can find it in [the List of regions and hosted Zone IDs](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/general/latest/gr/rande.html#s3_region)
 * * _Another Route 53 record_: you can either specify the correct zone id or do not specify anything and DNSControl will figure out the right zone id. (Note: Route53 alias can't reference a record in a different zone).
 *
 * Target health evaluation can be enabled with the [`R53_EVALUATE_TARGET_HEALTH`](../record/R53\_EVALUATE\_TARGET\_HEALTH.md) record modifier.
 *
 * ```javascript
 * D("example.com", REG_MY_PROVIDER, DnsProvider("ROUTE53"),
 *   R53_ALIAS("foo", "A", "bar"),                              // record in same zone

 * This is used in [`D()`](D.md) functions to create reverse DNS lookup zones.
 *
 * This is a convenience function. You could specify `D("3.2.1.in-addr.arpa",
 * ...` if you like to do things manually but why would you risk making
 * typos?
 *
 * `REV` complies with RFC2317, "Classless in-addr.arpa delegation"
 * for netmasks of size /25 through /31.
 * While the RFC permits any format, we abide by the recommended format:
 * `FIRST/MASK.C.B.A.in-addr.arpa` where `FIRST` is the first IP address
 * of the zone, `MASK` is the netmask of the zone (25-31 inclusive),
 * and A, B, C are the first 3 octets of the IP address. For example
 * `172.20.18.130/27` is located in a zone named
 * `128/27.18.20.172.in-addr.arpa`
 *
 * If the address does not include a "/" then `REV` assumes /32 for IPv4 addresses
 * and /128 for IPv6 addresses.
 *
 * Note that the lower bits (the ones outside the netmask) must be zeros. They are not
 * zeroed out automatically. Thus, `REV("1.2.3.4/24")` is an error.  This is done
 * to catch typos.
 *
 * ```javascript
 * D(REV("1.2.3.0/24"), REGISTRAR, DnsProvider(BIND),

/**
 * DNSControl can optimize the SPF settings on a domain by flattening
 * (inlining) includes and removing duplicates. DNSControl also makes
 * it easier to document your SPF configuration.
 *
 * WARNING: Flattening SPF includes is risky.  Only flatten an SPF
 * setting if it is absolutely needed to bring the number of "lookups"
 * to be less than 10. In fact, it is debatable whether or not ISPs
 * enforce the "10 lookup rule".
 *
 * ## The old way
 *
 * Here is an example of how SPF settings are normally done:
 *
 * ```javascript
 * D("example.com", REG_MY_PROVIDER, DnsProvider(DSP_MY_PROVIDER),
 *   TXT("v=spf1 ip4:198.252.206.0/24 ip4:192.111.0.0/24 include:_spf.google.com include:mailgun.org include:spf-basic.fogcreek.com include:mail.zendesk.com include:servers.mcsv.net include:sendgrid.net include:450622.spf05.hubspotemail.net ~all")
 * )
 * ```
 *
 * This has a few problems:
 *
 * * No comments. It is difficult to add a comment. In particular, we want to be able to list which ticket requested each item in the SPF setting so that history is retained.
 * * Ugly diffs.  If you add an element to the SPF setting, the diff will show the entire line changed, which is difficult to read.
 * * Too many lookups. The SPF RFC says that SPF settings should not require more than 10 DNS lookups. If we manually flatten (i.e. "inline") an include, we have to remember to check back to see if the settings have changed. Humans are not good at that kind of thing.
 *
 * ## The DNSControl way
 *
 * ```javascript
 * D("example.com", REG_MY_PROVIDER, DnsProvider(DSP_MY_PROVIDER),
 *   A("@", "10.2.2.2"),
 *   MX("@", "example.com."),
 *   SPF_BUILDER({
 *     label: "@",
 *     overflow: "_spf%d",
 *     raw: "_rawspf",
 *     ttl: "5m",
 *     parts: [
 *       "v=spf1",
 *       "ip4:198.252.206.0/24", // ny-mail*
 *       "ip4:192.111.0.0/24", // co-mail*
 *       "include:_spf.google.com", // GSuite
 *       "include:mailgun.org", // Greenhouse.io
 *       "include:spf-basic.fogcreek.com", // Fogbugz
 *       "include:mail.zendesk.com", // Zenddesk
 *       "include:servers.mcsv.net", // MailChimp
 *       "include:sendgrid.net", // SendGrid
 *       "include:450622.spf05.hubspotemail.net", // Hubspot (Ticket# SREREQ-107)
 *       "~all"
 *     ],
 *     flatten: [
 *       "spf-basic.fogcreek.com", // Rationale: Being deprecated. Low risk if it breaks.
 *       "450622.spf05.hubspotemail.net" // Rationale: Unlikely to change without warning.
 *     ]
 *   }),
 * );
 * ```
 *
 * By using the `SPF_BUILDER()` we gain many benefits:
 *
 * * Comments can appear next to the element they refer to.
 * * Diffs will be shorter and more specific; therefore easier to read.
 * * Automatic flattening.  We can specify which includes should be flattened and DNSControl will do the work. It will even warn us if the includes change.
 *
 * ## Syntax
 *
 * When you want to specify SPF settings for a domain, use the
 * `SPF_BUILDER()` function.
 *
 * ```javascript
 * D("example.com", REG_MY_PROVIDER, DnsProvider(DSP_MY_PROVIDER),
 *   ...
 *   ...
 *   ...
 *   SPF_BUILDER({
 *     label: "@",
 *     overflow: "_spf%d",  // Delete this line if you don't want big strings split.
 *     overhead1: "20",  // There are 20 bytes of other TXT records on this domain.  Compensate for this.
 *     raw: "_rawspf",  // Delete this line if the default is sufficient.
 *     parts: [
 *       "v=spf1",
 *       // fill in your SPF items here
 *       "~all"
 *     ],
 *     flatten: [
 *       // fill in any domains to inline.
 *     ]
 *   }),
 *   ...
 *   ...
 * );
 * ```
 *
 * The parameters are:
 *
 * * `label:` The label of the first TXT record. (Optional. Default: `"@"`)
 * * `overflow:` If set, SPF strings longer than 255 chars will be split into multiple TXT records. The value of this setting determines the template for what the additional labels will be named. If not set, no splitting will occur and DNSControl may generate TXT strings that are too long.
 * * `overhead1:` "Overhead for the 1st TXT record".  When calculating the max length of each TXT record, reduce the maximum for the first TXT record in the chain by this amount.
 * * `raw:` The label of the unaltered SPF settings. Setting to an empty string `''` will disable this. (Optional. Default: `"_rawspf"`)
 * * `ttl:` This allows setting a specific TTL on this SPF record. (Optional. Default: using default record TTL)
 * * `txtMaxSize` The maximum size for each TXT record. Values over 255 will result in [multiple strings][multi-string]. General recommendation is to [not go higher than 450][record-size] so that DNS responses will still fit in a UDP packet. (Optional. Default: `"255"`)
 * * `parts:` The individual parts of the SPF settings.
 * * `flatten:` Which includes should be inlined. For safety purposes the flattening is done on an opt-in basis. If `"*"` is listed, all includes will be flattened... this might create more problems than is solves due to length limitations.
 *
 * [multi-string]: https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4408#section-3.1.3
 * [record-size]: https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4408#section-3.1.4
 *
 * `SPF_BUILDER()` returns multiple `TXT()` records:
 *
 *   * `TXT("@", "v=spf1 .... ~all")`
 *     *  This is the optimized configuration.
 *   * `TXT("_spf1", "...")`
 *     * If the optimizer needs to split a long string across multiple TXT records, the additional TXT records will have labels `_spf1`, `_spf2`, `_spf3`, etc.
 *   * `TXT("_rawspf", "v=spf1 .... ~all")`
 *     * This is the unaltered SPF configuration. This is purely for debugging purposes and is not used by any email or anti-spam system.  It is only generated if flattening is requested.
 *
 * We recommend first using this without any flattening. Make sure
 * `dnscontrol preview` works as expected. Once that is done, add the
 * flattening required to reduce the number of lookups to 10 or less.
 *
 * To count the number of lookups, you can use our interactive SPF
 * debugger at [https://stackexchange.github.io/dnscontrol/flattener/index.html](https://stackexchange.github.io/dnscontrol/flattener/index.html)
 *
 * # The first in a chain is special
 *
 * When generating the chain of SPF
 * records, each one is max length 255.  For the first item in
 * the chain, the max is 255 - "overhead1".  Setting this to 255 or
 * higher has undefined behavior.
 *
 * Why is this useful?
 *
 * Some sites desire having all DNS queries fit in a single packet so
 * that UDP, not TCP, can be used to satisfy all requests. That means all
 * responses have to be relatively small.
 *
 * When an SPF system does a "TXT" lookup, it gets SPF and non-SPF
 * records.  This makes the first link in the chain extra large.
 *
 * The bottom line is that if you want the TXT records to fit in a UDP
 * packet, keep increasing the value of `overhead1` until the packet
 * is no longer truncated.
 *
 * Example:
 *
 * ```shell
 * dig +short whatexit.org txt | wc -c
 *    118
 * ```
 *
 * Setting `overhead1` to 118 should be sufficient.
 *
 * ```shell
 * dig +short stackoverflow.com txt | wc -c
 *      582
 * ```
 *
 * Since 582 is bigger than 255, it might not be possible to achieve the
 * goal.  Any value larger than 255 will disable all flattening.  Try
 * 170, then 180, 190 until you get the desired results.
 *
 * A validator such as
 * [https://www.kitterman.com/spf/validate.html](https://www.kitterman.com/spf/validate.html)
 * will tell you if the queries are being truncated and TCP was required
 * to get the entire record. (Sadly it caches heavily.)
 *
 * ## Notes about the `spfcache.json`
 *
 * DNSControl keeps a cache of the DNS lookups performed during
 * optimization.  The cache is maintained so that the optimizer does
 * not produce different results depending on the ups and downs of
 * other people's DNS servers. This makes it possible to do `dnscontrol
 * push` even if your or third-party DNS servers are down.
 *
 * The DNS cache is kept in a file called `spfcache.json`. If it needs
 * to be updated, the proper data will be written to a file called
 * `spfcache.updated.json` and instructions such as the ones below
 * will be output telling you exactly what to do:
 *
 * ```shell
 * dnscontrol preview
 * 1 Validation errors:
 * WARNING: 2 spf record lookups are out of date with cache (_spf.google.com,_netblocks3.google.com).
 * Wrote changes to spfcache.updated.json. Please rename and commit:
 *     $ mv spfcache.updated.json spfcache.json
 *     $ git commit spfcache.json
 * ```
 *
 * In this case, you are being asked to replace `spfcache.json` with
 * the newly generated data in `spfcache.updated.json`.
 *
 * Needing to do this kind of update is considered a validation error
 * and will block `dnscontrol push` from running.
 *
 * Note: The instructions are hardcoded strings. The filenames will
 * not change.
 *
 * Note: The instructions assume you use git. If you use something
 * else, please do the appropriate equivalent command.
 *
 * ## Caveats
 *
 * 1. DNSControl 'gives up' if it sees SPF records it can't understand.
 * This includes: syntax errors, features that our spflib doesn't know
 * about, overly complex SPF settings, and anything else that we we
 * didn't feel like implementing.
 *
 * 2. The TXT record that is generated may exceed DNS limits.  dnscontrol
 * will not generate a single TXT record that exceeds DNS limits, but
 * it ignores the fact that there may be other TXT records on the same
 * label.  For example, suppose it generates a TXT record on the bare
 * domain (stackoverflow.com) that is 250 bytes long. That's fine and
 * doesn't require a continuation record.  However if there is another
 * TXT record (not an SPF record, perhaps a TXT record used to verify
 * domain ownership), the total packet size of all the TXT records
 * could exceed 512 bytes, and will require EDNS or a TCP request.
 *
 * 3. DNSControl does not warn if the number of lookups exceeds 10.
 * We hope to implement this some day.
 *
 * 4. The `redirect=` directive is only partially implemented.  We only
 * handle the case where redirect is the last item in the SPF record.
 * In which case, it is equivalent to `include:`.
 *
 * ## Advanced Technique: Interactive SPF Debugger
 *
 * DNSControl includes an experimental system for viewing
 * SPF settings:
 *
 * [https://stackexchange.github.io/dnscontrol/flattener/index.html](https://stackexchange.github.io/dnscontrol/flattener/index.html)
 *
 * You can also run this locally (it is self-contained) by opening
 * `dnscontrol/docs/flattener/index.html` in your browser.
 *
 * You can use this to determine the minimal number of domains you
 * need to flatten to have fewer than 10 lookups.
 *
 * The output is as follows:
 *
 * 1. The top part lists the domain as it current is configured, how
 * many lookups it requires, and includes a checkbox for each item
 * that could be flattened.
 *
 * 2. Fully flattened: This section shows the SPF configuration if you
 * fully flatten it. i.e. This is what it would look like if all the
 * checkboxes were checked. Note that this result is likely to be
 * longer than 255 bytes, the limit for a single TXT string.
 *
 * 3. Fully flattened split: This takes the "fully flattened" result
 * and splits it into multiple DNS records.  To continue to the next
 * record an include is added.
 *
 * ## Advanced Technique: Define once, use many
 *
 * In some situations we define an SPF setting once and want to re-use
 * it on many domains. Here's how to do this:
 *
 * ```javascript
 * var SPF_MYSETTINGS = SPF_BUILDER({
 *   label: "@",
 *   overflow: "_spf%d",
 *   raw: "_rawspf",
 *   parts: [
 *     "v=spf1",
 *     ...
 *     "~all"
 *   ],
 *   flatten: [
 *     ...
 *   ]
 * });

 * D("example.com", REG_MY_PROVIDER, DnsProvider(DSP_MY_PROVIDER),
 *     SPF_MYSETTINGS
 * );

/**

 * label for the record. Use `@` for the domain apex.
 *
 * The contents is either a single or multiple strings.  To
 * specify multiple strings, specify them as an array.
 *
 * Each string is a JavaScript string (quoted using single or double
 * quotes).  The (somewhat complex) quoting rules of the DNS protocol
 * will be done for you.
 *
 * Modifiers can be any number of [record modifiers](https://docs.dnscontrol.org/language-reference/record-modifiers) or JSON objects, which will be merged into the record's metadata.

 *       TXT("quoted", "any "quotes" and escapes? ugh; no worries!"),

 *       TXT("long", "X".repeat(300)) // Long strings are split automatically.
 *     );
 * ```
 *
 * NOTE: In the past, long strings had to be annotated with the keyword
 * `AUTOSPLIT`. This is no longer required. The keyword is now a no-op.
 *
 * ### Long strings
 *
 * Strings that are longer than 255 octets (bytes) will be quietly
 * split into 255-octets chunks or the provider may report an error
 * if it does not handle multiple strings.
 *
 * ### TXT record edge cases
 *
 * Most providers do not support the full possibilities of what a `TXT`
 * record can store.  DNSControl can not handle all the edge cases
 * and incompatibles that providers have introduced.  Instead, it
 * stores the string(s) that you provide and passes them to the provider
 * verbatim. The provider may opt to accept the data, fix it, or
 * reject it. This happens early in the processing, long before
 * the DNSControl talks to the provider's API.
 *
 * The RFCs specify that a `TXT` record stores one or more strings,
 * each is up to 255 octets (bytes) long. We call these individual
 * strings *chunks*.  Each chunk may be zero to 255 octets long.
 * There is no limit to the number of chunks in a `TXT` record,
 * other than IP packet length restrictions.  The contents of each chunk
 * may be octets of value from 0x00 to 0xff.
 *
 * In reality DNS Service Providers (DSPs) place many restrictions on `TXT`
 * records.
 *
 * Some DSPs only support a single string of 255 octets or fewer.
 * Multiple strings, or any one string being longer than 255 octets will
 * result in an error. One provider limits the string to 254 octets,
 * which makes me think they're code has an off-by-one error.
 *
 * Some DSPs only support one string, but it may be of any length.
 * Behind the scenes the provider splits it into 255-octet chunks
 * (except the last one, of course).
 *
 * Some DSPs support multiple strings, but API requests must be 512-bytes
 * or fewer, and with quoting, escaping, and other encoding mishegoss
 * you can't be sure what will be permitted until you actually try it.
 *
 * Regardless of the quantity and length of strings, some providers ban
 * double quotes, back-ticks, or other chars.
 *
 * ### Testing the support of a provider
 *
 * #### How can you tell if a provider will support a particular `TXT()` record?
 *
 * Include the `TXT()` record in a [`D()`](../global/D.md) as usual, along
 * with the `DnsProvider()` for that provider.  Run `dnscontrol check` to
 * see if any errors are produced.  The check command does not talk to
 * the provider's API, thus permitting you to do this without having an
 * account at that provider.
 *
 * #### What if the provider rejects a string that is supported?
 *
 * Suppose I can create the TXT record using the DSP's web portal but
 * DNSControl rejects the string?
 *
 * It is possible that the provider code in DNSControl rejects strings
 * that the DSP accepts.  This is because the test is done in code, not
 * by querying the provider's API.  It is possible that the code was
 * written to work around a bug (such as rejecting a string with a
 * back-tick) but now that bug has been fixed.
 *
 * All such checks are in `providers/${providername}/auditrecords.go`.
 * You can try removing the check that you feel is in error and see if
 * the provider's API accepts the record.  You can do this by running the
 * integration tests, or by simply adding that record to an existing
 * `dnsconfig.js` and seeing if `dnscontrol push` is able to push that
 * record into production. (Be careful if you are testing this on a
 * domain used in production.)

/**
 * `getConfiguredDomains` getConfiguredDomains is a helper function that returns the domain names
 * configured at the time the function is called. Calling this function early or later in
 * `dnsconfig.js` may return different results. Typical usage is to iterate over all
 * domains at the end of your configuration file.
 *
 * Example for adding records to all configured domains:
 * ```javascript
 * var domains = getConfiguredDomains();
 * for(i = 0; i < domains.length; i++) {
 *   D_EXTEND(domains[i],
 *     TXT("_important", "BLA") // I know, not really creative.
 *   )
 * }
 * ```
 *
 * This will end up in following modifications: (All output assumes the `--full` flag)
 *
 * ```text
 * ******************** Domain: domain1.tld
 * ----- Getting nameservers from: registrar
 * ----- DNS Provider: registrar...2 corrections
 * #1: CREATE TXT _important.domain1.tld "BLA" ttl=43200
 * #2: REFRESH zone domain1.tld
 *
 * ******************** Domain: domain2.tld
 * ----- Getting nameservers from: registrar
 * ----- DNS Provider: registrar...2 corrections
 * #1: CREATE TXT _important.domain2.tld "BLA" ttl=43200
 * #2: REFRESH zone domain2.tld
 * ```
 *
 * Example for adding DMARC report records:
 *
 * This example might be more useful, specially for configuring the DMARC report records. According to DMARC RFC you need to specify `domain2.tld._report.dmarc.domain1.tld` to allow `domain2.tld` to send aggregate/forensic email reports to `domain1.tld`. This can be used to do this in an easy way, without using the wildcard from the RFC.
 *
 * ```javascript
 * var domains = getConfiguredDomains();
 * for(i = 0; i < domains.length; i++) {
 *     D_EXTEND("domain1.tld",
 *         TXT(domains[i] + "._report._dmarc", "v=DMARC1")
 *     );
 * }
 * ```
 *

 *
 * ```text
 * ******************** Domain: domain2.tld
 * ----- Getting nameservers from: registrar
 * ----- DNS Provider: registrar...4 corrections
