 The "badpacket" generator is a program that generates (potentially) bad
 DNS packets for sending to a nameserver and testing its response.  It is
 meant to be used as a testing tool for the BIND 10.  Currently, the
 generator can:
  * Set any combination of flags in the DNS message header.
  * Vary the size of the DNS message (by truncating or extending with
 random data)
  * Set the DNS message section counts (independently of what is in the
 section).
 This ticket is for enhancements to the program to:
  * Actually insert data into the various message sections.
  * Modify the data in the message sections (e.g. by corrupting the label
 length fields).
  * Add a set of options for testing (bad) EDNS0 data.
