// generateMagicDNSRootDomains generates a list of DNS entries to be included in the

// generateMagicDNSRootDomains generates a list of DNS entries to be included in `Routes` in `MapResponse`.
// This list of reverse DNS entries instructs the OS on what subnets and domains the Tailscale embedded DNS
// server (listening in 100.100.100.100 udp/53) should be used for.
//
// Tailscale.com includes in the list:
// - the `BaseDomain` of the user
// - the reverse DNS entry for IPv6 (0.e.1.a.c.5.1.1.a.7.d.f.ip6.arpa., see below more on IPv6)
// - the reverse DNS entries for the IPv4 subnets covered by the user's `IPPrefix`.
// In the public SaaS this is [64-127].100.in-addr.arpa.
//
// The main purpose of this function is then generating the list of IPv4 entries. For the 100.64.0.0/10, this
// is clear, and could be hardcoded. But we are allowing any range as `IPPrefix`, so we need to find out the
// subnets when we have 172.16.0.0/16 (i.e., [0-255].16.172.in-addr.arpa.), or any other subnet.
//
// How IN-ADDR.ARPA domains work is defined in RFC1035 (section 3.5). Tailscale.com seems to adhere to this,
// and do not make use of RFC2317 ("Classless IN-ADDR.ARPA delegation") - hence generating the entries for the next
// class block only.
// From the netmask we can find out the wildcard bits (the bits that are not set in the netmask).
// This allows us to then calculate the subnets included in the subsequent class block and generate the entries.
