Handle DNS NOTIFY messages by running a command

The nsnotifyd daemon monitors a set of DNS zones and runs a command when any of them change. It listens for DNS NOTIFY messages so it can respond to changes promptly. It also uses each zone’s SOA refresh and retry parameters to poll for updates if nsnotifyd does not receive NOTIFY messages more frequently.
