 {{{
  c-ares version 1.17.1 - Nov 19 2020

 Fixes packaging issues in 1.17.0.

 c-ares version 1.17.0 - Nov 16 2020

 Security:

     avoid read-heap-buffer-overflow in ares_parse_soa_reply found during
 fuzzing
     Avoid theoretical buffer overflow in RC4 loop comparison
     Empty hquery->name could lead to invalid memory access
     ares_parse_{a,aaaa}_reply() could return a larger *naddrttls than was
 passed in

 Changes:

     Update help information for adig, acountry, and ahost
     Test Suite now uses dynamic system-assigned ports rather than
 hardcoded ports to prevent failures in containers
     Detect remote DNS server does not support EDNS using rules from RFC
 6891
     Source tree has been reorganized to use a more modern layout
     Allow parsing of CAA Resource Record

 Bug fixes:

     readaddrinfo bad sizeof()
     Test cases should honor HAVE_WRITEV flag, not depend on WIN32
     FQDN with trailing period should be queried first
     ares_getaddrinfo() was returning members of the struct as garbage
 values if unset, and was not honoring ai_socktype and ai_protocol hints.
     ares_gethostbyname() with AF_UNSPEC and an ip address would fail
     Properly document ares_set_local_ip4() uses host byte order
