Willy Tarreau 940fa19ad8 MEDIUM: resolvers: add global "dns-accept-family" directive
By default, DNS resolvers accept both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses. This can be
influenced by the "resolve-prefer" keywords on server lines as well as the
family argument to the "do-resolve" action, but that is only a preference,
which does not block the other family from being used when it's alone. In
some environments where dual-stack is not usable, stumbling on an unreachable
IPv6-only DNS record can cause significant trouble as it will replace a
previous IPv4 one which would possibly have continued to work till next
request. The "dns-accept-family" global option permits to enforce usage of
only one (or both) address families. The argument is a comma-delimited list
of the following words:
  - "ipv4": query and accept IPv4 addresses ("A" records)
  - "ipv6": query and accept IPv6 addresses ("AAAA" records)

When a single family is used, no request will be sent to resolvers for the
other family, and any response for the othe family will be ignored. The
default value is "ipv4,ipv6", which effectively enables both families.
