serve stale feature to keep the DNS resource records beyond TTL to return them as stale records in case of upstream server is not reachable or returns negative response.
SD_RESOLVED_NO_STALE flag has been added to disable serving stale records via dbus.
added serve stale test cases to TEST-75-RESOLVED

When low-level RR resolution is requested from "resolvectl query" via
"--type=" or "--class=" no search domain logic is applied and no IDNA
translation.
Explain this in detail in the documentation, and also mentions this when
users attempt to resolve single-label names or names with international
characters in the output.
I believe the current behaviour is correct, but it is indeed surprising.
Hence the documentation and output improvement.

It's not that I think that "hostname" is vastly superior to "host name". Quite
the opposite — the difference is small, and in some context the two-word version
does fit better. But in the tree, there are ~200 occurrences of the first, and
>1600 of the other, and consistent spelling is more important than any particular
spelling choice.
This is useful to raise the log level for a single transaction or a few,
without affecting other state of the resolved as a restart would.
The log level can only be set, I didn't bother with having the ability
to restore the original as in pid1.
Add manpages.debian.org as a man citeref "project", so we can refer to man
pages hosted there. resolvconf(8) doesn't seem to appear on any of the ones we
currently have defined.
We are doing a trick, where our man page is installed as resolvconf(1), and
we refer the reader to resolvconf(8). This can be pretty confusing, so the
least we can do is to provide a non-broken symlink ;)
v2:
- link to manpages.d.o instead of manpages.ubuntu.com, because debian is the
upstream here, and because with debian we can use /unstable/ as the version,
and ubuntu doesn't seem to have any such shortcut, so the version would need
to be periodically updated.
When someone knows how the whole ecosystem works, this is understandable.
But for someone coming from a system where resolvconf updates /etc/resolv.conf
directly, this can be rather surprising.
