A disabled record stays in Jarl with its ID, TTL and comment but is
left out of the zone; the zone file lists it as a comment. Web UI
toggle, jarl record disable|enable, record.disable|enable operations
and API endpoints. Database schema 5.

Every DNS query the name server checks send is now reported from
exchangeHostPort as a dig command line with a short answer (addresses,
referral, DS, NXDOMAIN) and its round-trip time; the serials check's SOA
queries keep their own events with the server's result. The delegation
check streams with ?stream=1 like /serials, and the Name servers tab
shows its queries as they happen, keeps its result and follows a running
check when you come back.

The zone's Name servers tab no longer waits for the other servers before
showing: it lists each query as a dig command line with a waiting
counter, fills in the answers as they arrive, then shows the result with
the queries under "Queries sent". Results (serials and delegation) are
kept for 10 minutes so revisiting the tab is instant; "Check again" asks
anew, and a check keeps running when the tab is left.
GET /zones/{zone}/serials?stream=1 streams the queries as
newline-delimited JSON (nscheck.Checker.Watch); without it the endpoint
is unchanged.

Zones get a DNSSEC setting: named signs them with BIND's default (or a
custom) dnssec-policy and inline signing, with keys in a per-view key
directory. Jarl shows the keys, the DS record and when it is safe to
publish it, checks the parent's DS records (check-ds, which also tells
named), and refuses steps that would break a signed domain: switching
straight to unsigned, finishing a turn-off too early, deleting or moving
a signed zone, TTLs above max-zone-ttl. Turning off goes through the
insecure policy; wipe starts over once the parent has no DS.
Backups store the DNSSEC keys and restore puts them back for named; the
backup unit gets CAP_DAC_READ_SEARCH to read them. Jarl raises a zone's
serial above named's whenever it writes an older one (after a restore).
The serials check compares the signed serial.
With a Porkbun API key in jarl.yaml, the registrar's name servers, glue
records and DS records can be shown and changed, each change checked
first (dry run, force to override).

- Daily database backups: jarl-backup.timer runs 'jarld backup', which
writes jarl-<UTC time>.db into backup.dir, checks it before naming it,
and prunes by the time in the name while always keeping the newest
keep_at_least. New backup: section in jarl.yaml; the dashboard and
'jarl status' show the newest backup and warn when it is stale or
failed. The Debian package enables the timer.
- 'jarld restore [FILE | latest]': checks the backup, shows it next to
the current database, keeps the current one aside and records the
restore. 'jarld serve' holds a database lock, so a restore can't run
under a live jarld and two jarlds can't share a database.
- Token expiry warnings from 14 days ahead: dashboard, token lists, a
daily log line, and a CLI warning via the Jarl-Token-Expires header;
'jarl token list --expiring'.
- 'jarl zone serials' and the zone page's Name servers tab: compare the
serial on a primary zone's secondaries (NS records, also-notify) or a
secondary zone's primaries with this server's.
- 'jarl zone delegation': for zones on the internet, check the parent's
delegation and glue against the zone; an undelegated zone gets a note.
- Server: Jarl/<version> header; CLI exit code 2 for failed checks.
