[Bruce Dubbs]

New minor version.

[Bruce Dubbs]

c-ares version 1.16.0

Changes:

• Introduction of ares_getaddrinfo() API which provides similar output (including pr-per sorting as per RFC 6724) to the system native API, but utilizes different data structures in order to provide additional information such as TTLs and all aliases. Please reference the respective man pages for usage details.
• Parse SOA records from ns_t_any response
• CMake: Provide c-ares version in package export file
• CMake: Add CPACK functionality for DEB and RPM
• CMake: Generate PDB files during build
• CMake: Support manpage installation

Bug fixes:

• Fix bad expectation in IPv6 localhost test.
• AutoTools: use XC_CHECK_BUILD_FLAGS instead of XC_CHECK_USER_FLAGS to prevent c-mplaints about CPPFLAGS in CFLAGS.
• Fix .onion handling
• Command line usage was out of date for adig and ahost.
• Typos in manpages
• If ares_getenv is defined, it must return a value on all platforms
• If /etc/resolv.conf has invalid lookup values, use the defaults.
• Tests: Separate live tests from SetServers* tests as only live tests should require internet access.
• ares_gethostbyname() should return ENODATA if no valid A or AAAA record is f-und, but a CNAME was found.
• CMake: Rework library function checking to prevent unintended linking with system libraries that aren't needed.
• Due to use of inet_addr() it was not possible to return 255.255.255.255 from ares_geth-stbyname().
• CMake: Fix building of tests on Windows
