Provides SRV support for -e|--directoryaddress option

[rdica]

Short description of changes

Provides SRV DNS support for -e|--directoryaddress option.

CHANGELOG: SKIP

Context

Currently one needs to provide both an IP/host and port number to the -e|--directoryaddress option if the directory server is not using the default port 22124. This patch will enable the ability to use preconfigured SRV DNS records by a server to connect to a directory without having to provide a port number.

The patch expands on SRV support in client code already in main.

I have created SRV DNS records to test with that point to each of the seven public directory servers provided by the Jamulus team:

• anygenre1.jamulusjams.com
• anygenre2.jamulusjams.com
• anygenre3.jamulusjams.com
• rock.jamulusjams.com
• jazz.jamulusjams.com
• classical.jamulusjams.com
• choral.jamulusjams.com

You can confirm the SRV records using the following:
Mac/Linux

dig _jamulus._udp.anygenre1.jamulusjams.com srv

;; ANSWER SECTION:
_jamulus._udp.anygenre1.jamulusjams.com. 3600 IN SRV 0 0 22124 anygenre1.jamulus.io.

Windows

nslookup -type=srv _jamulus._udp.anygenre1.jamulusjams.com`

Server:  UnKnown
Address:  10.2.0.1

_jamulus._udp.anygenre1.jamulusjams.com SRV service location:
          priority       = 0
          weight         = 0
          port           = 22124
          svr hostname   = anygenre1.jamulus.io

In order to utilize this functionality for the Jamulus public space, the Jamulus team could create the seven SRV records and publish those in the same table that displays the server host/port pairs in https://jamulus.io/wiki/Running-a-Server#registered-mode

Does this change need documentation? What needs to be documented and how?

Unsure. According to --help output, the option -c|--connect doesn't mention anything about SRV support. In that same vein I submit nothing should be added for -e|--directoryaddress either.

I have just created SRV records in our zone on Cloudflare for the various directories, as follows:

;; SRV Records
_jamulus._udp.anygenre1.jamulus.io.     60      IN      SRV     0 0 22124 anygenre1.jamulus.io.
_jamulus._udp.anygenre2.jamulus.io.     60      IN      SRV     0 0 22224 anygenre2.jamulus.io.
_jamulus._udp.anygenre3.jamulus.io.     60      IN      SRV     0 0 22624 anygenre3.jamulus.io.
_jamulus._udp.choral.jamulus.io.        60      IN      SRV     0 0 22724 choral.jamulus.io.
_jamulus._udp.classical.jamulus.io.     60      IN      SRV     0 0 22524 classical.jamulus.io.
_jamulus._udp.jazz.jamulus.io.          60      IN      SRV     0 0 22324 jazz.jamulus.io.
_jamulus._udp.private.jamulus.io.       60      IN      SRV     0 0 22124 private.jamulus.io.
_jamulus._udp.rock.jamulus.io.          60      IN      SRV     0 0 22424 rock.jamulus.io.

Once we are happy they are working correctly, we can wind the TTLs up from 1 minute to something longer.

@softins thanks, I have reconfigured one of my servers to use SRV for anygenre2.jamulus.io, monitoring.

Nov 10 18:21:03 daw6 jamulus[279573]: resolved anygenre2.jamulus.io to a single SRV record: anygenre2.jamulus.io:22224
Nov 10 18:21:03 daw6 jamulus[279573]: Server Registration Status update: Registration requested
Nov 10 18:21:03 daw6 jamulus[279573]: Server Registration Status update: Registered

Looks fine to me. Tested on all standard directories, using both -e and the Custom setting in the server GUI.

While the SRV lookups work and servers can connect to a directory server, I'm seeing all my test servers lose their ability to maintain their registrations eventually, some indeterminate time within 24 hrs, and attempts to re-register stop being logged. Any clients that were connected to the server itself also get disconnected. Attempting to investigate further...
