Remove the text from the ARM and DNSSEC guide that describes how to do
key and denial of existence operations using dynamic update. Add a new
section about DNSSEC multi-signer models, but no longer suggest using
dynamic update and auto-dnssec allow.
Remove code that triggers key and denial of existence management
operations. Dynamic update should no longer be used to do DNSSEC
maintenance (other than that of course signatures need to be
created for the new zone contents).
Remove test cases that rely upon key and denial of existence
management operations triggered by dynamic updates.
The autosign system test needed a bit more care than just removing
because the test cases are dependent on each other, so there are some
additional tweaks such as setting the NSEC3PARAM via rndc signing,
and renaming zone input files. In the process, some additional
debug output files have been added, and a 'ret' fail case overwrite
was fixed.

Fuzzing and benchmarking for dns_name_fromwire()
Since this is very sensitive code which has often had security
problems in many DNS implementations, it needs a decent amount of
validation. This fuzzer ensures that the new code has the same output
as the old code, and that it doesn't take longer than a second.
The benchmark uses the fuzzer's copy of the old dns_name_fromwire()
code to compare a number of scenarios: many compression pointers, many
labels, long labels, random data, with/without downcasing.

Simplify and speed up DNS name decompression
The aim is to do less work per byte:
* Check the bounds for each label, instead of checking the
bounds for each character.
* Instead of copying one character at a time from the wire to
the name, copy entire runs of sequential labels using memmove()
to make the most of its fast loop.
* To remember where the name ends, we only need to set the end
marker when we see a compression pointer or when we reach the
root label. There is no need to check if we jumped back and
conditionally update the counter for every character.
* To parse a compression pointer, we no longer take a diversion
around the outer loop in between reading the upper byte of the
pointer and the lower byte.
* The parser state machine is now implicit in the instruction
pointer, instead of being an explicit variable. Similarly,
when we reach the root label we break directly out of the loop
instead of setting a second state machine variable.
* DNS_NAME_DOWNCASE is never used with dns_name_fromwire() so
that option is no longer supported.
I have removed this comment which dated from January 1999 when
dns_name_fromwire() was first introduced:
/*
* Note: The following code is not optimized for speed, but
* rather for correctness. Speed will be addressed in the future.
*/
No functional change, apart from removing support for the unused
DNS_NAME_DOWNCASE option. The new code is about 2x faster than the
old code: best case 11x faster, worst case 1.4x faster.

Avoid unspecified behaviour in name_test
C does not make any guarantees about the value of padding in a

Add new isc_hashmap API that differs from the current isc_ht API in
several aspects:
1. It implements Robin Hood Hashing which is open-addressing hash table
algorithm (e.g. no linked-lists)
2. No memory allocations - the array to store the nodes is made of
isc_hashmap_node_t structures instead of just pointers, so there's
only allocation on resize.
3. The key is not copied into the hashmap node and must be also stored
externally, either as part of the stored value or in any other
location that's valid as long the value is stored in the hashmap.
This makes the isc_hashmap_t a little less universal because of the key
storage requirements, but the inserts and deletes are faster because
they don't require memory allocation on isc_hashmap_add() and memory
deallocation on isc_hashmap_delete().
