Stefan Agner a3a8e82f25 resolved: only send goodbye for the RRs of the service being unregistered
dns_scope_announce(scope, /* goodbye= */ true) is not scoped to a
specific service: it walks the whole per-link mDNS zone and flags every
established RR as goodbye (TTL 0). Unregistering a single DNS-SD
service via the UnregisterService() D-Bus call hence withdrew the
host's own A/AAAA records and every other published service on the
link from remote caches, with nothing re-announcing them afterwards.

Introduce dns_scope_send_goodbye(), which sends an unsolicited response
for a caller-provided RR set, and let the DNS-SD unregistration path
send goodbye only for the RRs of the service actually being removed,
mirroring the flag logic of dns_scope_announce().

The goodbye answer is built per scope, and only includes records
actually established in the respective zone (or under re-verification,
in which case they are still served from it): a per-service goodbye
must take care not to withdraw records that are still being probed for
uniqueness, were withdrawn again after a conflict (in which case the
name belongs to the neighbor), or were never published in the scope in
the first place (e.g. on MulticastDNS=resolve links, which have an mDNS
scope but do not publish DNS-SD services).

This becomes more important with the next commit, which promotes
unregistration from an explicit method call to an automatic consequence
of the registering client disconnecting from the bus.
