The DNS overview "Download" produces a $ORIGIN zonefile, but the
right-hand side of MX, CNAME and SRV records was emitted as a relative
name. A target such as mail.example.net is then read relative to the
origin and expands to mail.example.net.example.org., which is wrong.
The only prior attempt at making names absolute was
str_replace($domain, $domain . '.', ...), which appended a dot only to
targets that happened to contain the origin domain, so cross-domain
targets stayed relative. That same replace also corrupted any TXT value
containing the origin (e.g. a DMARC rua=mailto:x@example.org became
...@example.org.).
Absolutize the RHS per record type at export time only: MX and CNAME
targets, and the SRV target token, get a trailing dot; ports, the SRV
root target ".", IP addresses and TXT character strings are left as is.
The records used for the on-page DNS validation are untouched, so
matching against dns_get_record() output still works.
