Robby Workman 7a1b4848a3 python/*: Moved a lot of Python stuff here
The criteria for whether something "belongs" in Development or
Libraries or Python or ... is admittedly arbitrary.  As a general
rule, if it could be either Libraries or Python, it's Python.
Otherwise, pick one and we'll go from there...

dnspython is a DNS toolkit for Python. It supports almost all record
types. It can be used for queries, zone transfers, and dynamic updates.
It supports TSIG authenticated messages and EDNS0.

dnspython provides both high and low level access to DNS. The high
level classes perform queries for data of a given name, type, and
class, and return an answer set. The low level classes allow direct
manipulation of DNS zones, messages, names, and records.

Optionally, dnspython can use pycrypto for DNSSEC functionality.
