Client groups put devices (addresses, networks, or ACLs of them) at a
blocking step: off (only your rules), normal (the default), or steps
added above it, each including the lists of the steps below. Lists
start at a step. In each view, a gate policy zone in front of a step's
lists lets the devices below that step through (rpz-client-ip triggers
with rpz-passthru), so every list is still loaded once. The IPv6 part
of a gate leaves the IPv4-mapped range out: named matches IPv4 clients
as ::ffff:a.b.c.d.
Web UI: a Devices panel on the Blocking page and a step on each list.
CLI: jarl block step, jarl block group, jarl blocklist --step. API:
/blocking/steps, /blocking/groups. Database schema 8.
Also: copying the state kept empty lists as empty (not nil), so
reverting a changeset no longer adds restore operations for unchanged
blocklists, rules and views.

Each view's match-clients starts with "key jarl-view-NAME" (after
"!key" for the views listed after it), so a query signed with a view's
key lands in that view from any address. The secrets are derived from a
random seed in Jarl's database. The delegation check signs its queries
to this server's own addresses with the key of the zone's view: before,
they got whichever view matched the server's address, usually internal.
jarl view key / GET /views/{id}/key show a key for dig -k (tsig:write,
audited). jarl-view- key names are reserved; the importer drops view
keys from a configuration Jarl wrote.

jarld downloads blocklists (Adblock, hosts or plain domains), checks them
daily and reloads named only when a list changed; your own block and
allow rules take precedence, and the most specific rule wins. Lists and
rules apply per view (default: every view that offers recursion). Web UI
Blocking page with name checks, jarl blocklist and jarl block, the
/blocking API, blocked counts in the statistics. Database schema 6.
