dnsmasq: change 'add_local_hostname' to use dnsmasq '--interface-name'
'add_local_hostname' previous implementation may drop some addresses. Soft addition of IP6 addresses may not cause a reload or restart event. dnsmasq '--interface-name' robustly applies DNS to all addresses per interface (except fe80::/10). Change UCI 'add_local_hostname' to expand during each interface assignement during add_dhcp(). Assign '<iface>.<host>.<domain>' as true name (reflexive A, AAAA, and PTR). Assign '<host>.<domain>' and '<host>' as convinience aliases (no PTR, not technically CNAME). This is accomplished with the '--interface-name' order, first is PTR. We could also assign each <ip4/6>.<iface>.<host>.<domain> to the respective dual stack on the interface. That seemed excessive so it was skipped (/4 or /6 suffix to the interface). Add UCI 'add_wan_hostname' similar to 'add_local_hostname' function for external WAN. WAN IP4 are less often named by the ISP and rarely WAN IP6 due to complexity. For logs, LuCI connection graph, and other uses assigning a WAN name is desired. 'add_local_hostname' only applies with DHCP and 'add_wam_hostname' only applies without DHCP. Common residential users will want to set both options TRUE. Businesses will probably have global DNS, static IP, and 'add_wan_hostname' FALSE. Signed-off-by: Eric Luehrsen <ericluehrsen@hotmail.com>
