george 4812f02dd0 - Added generic EDNS code for registering known EDNS option codes,
bypassing the cache response stage and uniquifying mesh states. Four EDNS
  option lists were added to module_qstate (module_qstate.edns_opts_*) to
  store EDNS options from/to front/back side.
- Added two flags to module_qstate (no_cache_lookup, no_cache_store) that
  control the modules' cache interactions.
- Added code for registering inplace callback functions. The registered
  functions can be called just before replying with local data or Chaos,
  replying from cache, replying with SERVFAIL, replying with a resolved
  query, sending a query to a nameserver. The functions can inspect the
  available data and maybe change response/query related data (i.e. append
  EDNS options).
- Updated Python module for the above.
- Updated Python documentation.

.. _example_asynch:
Asynchronous lookup
===================
This example performs the name lookup in the background.
The main program keeps running while the name is resolved.
Source code
-----------
::
#!/usr/bin/python
import time
import unbound
ctx = unbound.ub_ctx()
ctx.resolvconf("/etc/resolv.conf")
def call_back(my_data,status,result):
print "Call_back:", my_data
if status == 0 and result.havedata:
print "Result:", result.data.address_list
my_data['done_flag'] = True
my_data = {'done_flag':False,'arbitrary':"object"}
status, async_id = ctx.resolve_async("www.seznam.cz", my_data, call_back, unbound.RR_TYPE_A, unbound.RR_CLASS_IN)
while (status == 0) and (not my_data['done_flag']):
status = ctx.process()
time.sleep(0.1)
if (status != 0):
print "Resolve error:", unbound.ub_strerror(status)
The :meth:`unbound.ub_ctx.resolve_async` method is able to pass on any Python
object. In this example, we used a dictionary object ``my_data``.
