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.

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.
