Security
fix CVE-2018-1110: denial of service triggered by malformed DNS messages (!550, !558, security!2, security!4)
increase resilience against slow lorris attack (security!5)
Bugfixes
validation: fix SERVFAIL in case of CNAME to NXDOMAIN in a single zone (!538)
validation: fix SERVFAIL for DS . query (!544)
lib/resolve: don’t send unecessary queries to parent zone (!513)
iterate: fix validation for zones where parent and child share NS (!543)

Improvements
prefill: new module to periodically import root zone into cache (replacement for RFC 7706, !511)
network_listen_fd: always create end point for supervisor supplied file descriptor
use CPPFLAGS build environment variable if set (!547)
