jschoubben 6a56738d7b Issue 112: diagnose — the predecessor's own DNS config already names the carried peers
Checked why ADR 0104's forward-to-predecessor shape doesn't transfer to the
resolver the way it did the proxy: DNS is one process on one port, and
assigning the mesh's dnsmasq module replaces it in place, so there is no
predecessor process left standing to forward to.

But /etc/dnsmasq.d/hal-dns.conf's static address= lines for ace/shanks/g14
match the mesh's own carried-peer addresses from overlay show exactly. The
name a carried peer needs isn't a guess the operator has to make under
pressure — it's a transcription of a record the predecessor already has and
has been correctly serving for six days. Located in mesh-controller (no way
to attach a name to a carried peer today) and the dnsmasq module (doesn't
emit a wildcard for a named-but-uncarried peer). Not implemented.
