Since 2008, the cleaning-interval timer has been documented as
"effectively obsolete" and disabled in the default configuration with
a comment saying "now meaningless".
This change deletes all the code that implements the cleaning-interval
timer, except for the config parser in whcih it is now explicitly
marked as obsolete.
I have verified (using the deletelru and deletettl cache stats) that
named still cleans the cache after this change.
in the "refactor tcpquota and pipeline refs" commit, the counting
of active interfaces was tightened in such a way that named could
fail to listen on an interface if there were more interfaces than
tcp-clients. when checking the quota to start accepting on an
interface, if the number of active clients was above zero, then
it was presumed that some other client was able to handle accepting
new connections. this, however, ignored the fact that the current client
could be included in that count, so if the quota was already exceeded
before all the interfaces were listening, some interfaces would never
listen.
we now check whether the current client has been marked active; if so,
then the number of active clients on the interface must be greater
than 1, not 0.

More specifically: ignore configured trusted and managed keys that
match a disabled algorithm. The behavioral change is that
associated responses no longer SERVFAIL, but return insecure.
Add a warning about potential performance implications of configuring a
non-root zone as a mirror zone. Explain in more detail how each mirror
zone version is validated and how validation failures are handled. Move
the paragraphs describing how to set up IANA root zone mirroring higher
up, so that they can be more easily found by the reader. Explicitly
state that the "masters" option needs to be present for any mirror zone
which is not the root zone. Tweak the description of the interaction
between the "dnssec-validation" setting and root zone mirroring to make
it less ambiguous. Specify what the default "notify" setting is for
mirror zones.
- options that were flagged as obsolete or not implemented in 9.0.0
are now flagged as "ancient", and are a fatal error
- the ARM has been updated to remove these, along with other
obsolete descriptions of BIND 8 behavior
- the log message for obsolete options explicitly recommends removal
- "hook" is now used only for hook points and hook actions
- the "hook" statement in named.conf is now "plugin"
- ns_module and ns_modlist are now ns_plugin and ns_plugins
- ns_module_load is renamed ns_plugin_register
- the mandatory functions in plugin modules (hook_register,
hook_check, hook_version, hook_destroy) have been renamed
Contrary to what the documentation states, the "server-addresses"
static-stub zone option does not accept custom port numbers. Fix the
configuration type used by the "server-addresses" option to ensure
documentation matches source code. Remove a check_zoneconf() test which
is unnecessary with this fix in place.
