./net/mDNSResponder, Apples mDNS responder

Branch: CURRENT, Version: 2559.1.1, Package name: mDNSResponder-2559.1.1, Maintainer: pkgsrc-users

The mDNSResponder project is a component of Bonjour, Apple's ease-of-use IP
networking initiative: <http://developer.apple.com/bonjour/>

Apple's Bonjour software derives from the ongoing standardization work of the
IETF Zero Configuration Networking Working Group: <http://zeroconf.org/>

The Zeroconf Working Group has identified three requirements for Zero
Configuration Networking:
1. An IP address (even when there is no DHCP server to assign one)
2. Name-to-address translation (even when there is no DNS server)
3. Discovery of Services on the network (again, without infrastucture)

Requirement 1 is met by self-assigned link-local addresses, as
described in "Dynamic Configuration of IPv4 Link-Local Addresses"
<http://files.zeroconf.org/draft-ietf-zeroconf-ipv4-linklocal.txt>

Requirement 2 is met by sending DNS-like queries via Multicast (mDNS).

Requirement 3 is met by DNS Service Discovery (DNS-SD).

Self-assigned link-local address capability has been available since
1998, when it first appeared in Windows '98 and in Mac OS 8.5.
Implementations for other platforms also exist.

Log message:
The macOS build tripping over a build objects directory that hasn't
been created yet would suggest that the package still isn't up for a
parallel build.

Log message:
Upgrade net/mDNSResponder to v2559.1.1

Upstream's github repository mainly has patch bombs from Apple's
internal tree, so no changelog.

There is an rc.d script now, and mdnsd will change to a configurable
unprivileged user.
