Add a Sphinx role for linking CVEs to the ISC Knowledgebase
The new :cve: Sphinx role takes a CVE number as an argument and creates
a hyperlink to the relevant ISC Knowledgebase document that might have
more up-to-date or verbose information than the relevant release note.
This makes reaching ISC Knowledgebase pages directly from the release
notes easier.

Make all CVE references in the release notes use the new Sphinx role.

Notes for BIND 9.19.14
----------------------
Security Fixes
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- The overmem cleaning process has been improved, to prevent the cache from
significantly exceeding the configured :any:`max-cache-size` limit.
:cve:`2023-2828`
ISC would like to thank Shoham Danino from Reichman University, Anat
Bremler-Barr from Tel-Aviv University, Yehuda Afek from Tel-Aviv University,
and Yuval Shavitt from Tel-Aviv University for bringing this vulnerability to
our attention. :gl:`#4055`
New Features
~~~~~~~~~~~~
- The read timeout in :iscman:`rndc` can now be specified on the command
line using the :option:`-t <rndc -t>` option, allowing commands that
take a long time to complete sufficient time to do so. :gl:`#4046`
- Support for multi-signer model 2 (:rfc:`8901`) when using
:any:`inline-signing` was added. :gl:`#2710`
- A new option to :any:`dnssec-policy` has been added, :any:`cdnskey`,
that allows users to enable or disable the publication of CDNSKEY
records. :gl:`#4050`
- The system test suite can now be executed with pytest (along with
pytest-xdist for parallel execution). :gl:`#3978`
Removed Features
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- Special-case code that was originally added to allow GSS-TSIG to work
around bugs in the Windows 2000 version of Active Directory has now
been removed, since Windows 2000 is long past end-of-life. The
:option:`-o <nsupdate -o>` option and the ``oldgsstsig`` command to
:iscman:`nsupdate` have been deprecated, and are now treated as
synonyms for :option:`-g <nsupdate -g>` and ``gsstsig`` respectively.
:gl:`#4012`
Feature Changes
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- If a response from an authoritative server has its RCODE set to
FORMERR and contains an echoed EDNS COOKIE option that was present in
the query, :iscman:`named` now retries sending the query to the
same server without an EDNS COOKIE option. :gl:`#4049`
- The responsiveness of :iscman:`named` was improved, when serving as an
authoritative DNS server for a delegation-heavy zone(s) shortly after
loading such zone(s). :gl:`#4045`
Bug Fixes
~~~~~~~~~
- When the :any:`stale-answer-enable` option was enabled and the
:any:`stale-answer-client-timeout` option was enabled and larger than
0, :iscman:`named` previously allocated two slots from the
:any:`clients-per-query` limit for each client and failed to gradually
auto-tune its value, as configured. This has been fixed. :gl:`#4074`
- Previously, it was possible for a delegation from cache to be returned
to the client after the :any:`stale-answer-client-timeout` duration.
This has been fixed. :gl:`#3950`
- BIND could allocate too big buffers when sending data via
stream-based DNS transports, leading to increased memory usage.
This has been fixed. :gl:`#4038`
Known Issues
~~~~~~~~~~~~
- There are no new known issues with this release. See :ref:`above
<relnotes_known_issues>` for a list of all known issues affecting this
BIND 9 branch.
