➕ CVD-Update can now get the DNS nameserver IP from an environment variable.

Specify the IP address of the nameserver in the environment variable
CVDUPDATE_NAMESERVER to ensure said nameserver is used when querying the
TXT record containing the current database definition version available.

Using this environment variable will take precedence over any option specified
in the config file.

➕ CVD-Update can now accept multiple DNS nameservers from the nameserver
config option, or from the CVDUPDATE_NAMESERVER environment variable.

To set multiple DNS nameservers, specify the nameserver config option or the
CVDUPDATE_NAMESERVER environment variable as a comma separated list.

E.g.:

CVDUPDATE_NAMESERVER=1.1.1.1,8.8.8.8 cvd update

🐛 In prior versions, CVD-Update would assume that a CVD file exists because it
is listed in the config.json "dbs" record. So if you delete that file by
accident and try to update, it would not notice and would instead claim that
it is up-to-date. In this release, CVD-Update will detect that a deleted file
is missing from the database directory and will re-download it.

Fix courtesy of Brent Clark.

🌌 CVD-Update will no longer remove extra files from the database directory
when you run cvd clean dbs. It will only remove those file managed by the
CVD-Update tool.

This means that you can now store third-party extra signature databases in the
CVD-Update database directory and CVD-Update will not delete them if you run
the clean command.

🌌 CVD-Update now stores the database state information separately from the
configuration information. If you're upgrading from CVD-Update version 1.0.2,
your config.json file will be migrated automatatically when you run
cvd update to split it into config.json + state.json.

This change allows you to administrate the CVD-Update config files with a
config management tool.
