jarl token rotate, a Rotate button in the web UI and
POST /api/v1/tokens/{id}/rotate give a token a new secret while it keeps
its ID, name, user and grants. The old secret stops at once or after a
grace period of up to 7 days, during which jarld logs who still uses it.
A token that expires gets its lifetime again. --save writes the new
secret where the CLI got the old one (its configuration or --token @FILE),
--write FILE to any file, and --current picks the token the CLI runs
with, so a restricted token can renew itself. A restricted token can't
rotate a wider token of its user.
Also fixes token create --save for named servers, and future times
(token expiry) shown as "just now" in the web UI.

- New zone dialog: choose Domain or Reverse zone. Reverse zones are
created from a network and their name is generated; both kinds show the
exact zone name and flag likely mistakes (addresses or URLs as names,
host-like names, duplicates in the view, parent/child zones, networks
off the octet/nibble boundaries) before anything is submitted.
- Record form: clears every field but the type after an add; shows the
record exactly as it will be stored and warns about unqualified names.
In reverse zones it takes an address, defaults to PTR, suggests host
names of A/AAAA records with that address and warns about a second PTR;
the record list shows addresses.
- Address match lists (options, view match lists, ACL elements) offer the
existing ACLs, TSIG keys and built-ins as one-click suggestions and
flag unknown names.
- Server: in reverse zones a record can be named by its address, and a
PTR target like nas.example.com without the final dot is read as the
full host name (a bare label is refused). Warnings noticed while parsing
record data reach the result again.
- Fixes: brand link hover underline, the dashboard's "New zone" link
opening the dialog twice.

- jarl zone list showed only primary zones. zone create binds its --type
flag (default "primary") to the same variable as list's --type, so the
default leaked into the list filter and hid hint, secondary and forward
zones. list now has its own variable. TestListQueries runs list
commands against a fake server and checks the filters they send.
- named-checkconf/named-checkzone messages are classified by the tool's
exit code: on success, everything printed is a warning. Warnings such
as 'both "recursion no;" and "allow-recursion" active' were shown as
errors. The CLI, jarld check and the web UI now label them as warnings
and skip the routine "loaded serial" lines.
- The zone_outside_view error points at --adopt-zones.
- docs/views.md: step-by-step split DNS for a server that has no views
yet, tested on a copy of a stock Ubuntu 26.04 setup. Linked from the
README, concepts and validation docs.

Jarl keeps a BIND 9.20 server's whole configuration (views, ACLs, TSIG
keys, zones of every type, records, named.conf options) in SQLite and
renders named.conf, keys.conf and zone files from it.
Every change goes through one changeset pipeline: whole-configuration
validation, named-checkconf -z and named-checkzone in a staging
directory, atomic install, rndc reconfig/reload, serial verification
with rndc zonestatus, and rollback if named does not load the change.
Changes apply one at a time by default or are bundled and applied
together. Applied changesets can be reverted.
- jarld: the daemon with the REST API and an embedded web UI, plus import,
adopt, check, resync, backup and local user recovery commands
- jarl: the CLI, including ACME DNS-01 hooks for certbot and acme.sh
- users with argon2id passwords and CSRF-protected sessions; hashed API
tokens with granular grants and roles; an audit log
- systemd unit, sysusers.d/tmpfiles.d files, Makefile
- unit tests, integration tests against a real named, scripts/e2e.sh
- docs/ guides, README and CHANGELOG
