Managing basic level of DNS related concepts:
- domain names
- RR related parameters: types, classes, TTLs
- RRsets
- RDATA for some major RR types: A, NS, SOA, PTR, CNAME, MX, TXT,
  AAAA, DS, DNSKEY, OPT, NSEC, RRSIG, NSEC3, NSECPARAM
  - some parts of the implementation are incomplete
  - unknown RR types are supported based on RFC3597
- DNS messages (standard query/response)
- APIs to convert these objects to/from text or to/from wire format

I believe it should be mostly compliant to RFC2671 (+DO bit).  But it
doesn't support any new EDNS0 options (ignore them in incoming
messages, and lacks the ability to specify them for outgoing
messages).  Most notably, it doesn't support the NSID option.
(plus, the implementation is a quick hack and not so clean:-)
