NIOS Deletes identical record in secondary View

[coreywan]

SUMMARY

When testing functionality of the nios_cname_record module, one of my team members noticed that if you want to apply the same CNAME record into two or more views, it will remove the previous CNAME record from the other DNS view. In our case, we want to have a CNAME record present in our External view, and Internal DNS View.

Looking through the code, it looks like this will be an issue for all DNS record types except for the HOST record which has this built in to the module util.

fix for the issue was raised in PR ##48859 and is merged in devel, also the contributor has raised a PR having unit test for the cname_record. So, closing this respective bug and will keep an eye on the PR #47535 as it's waiting for nios_container update which will ultimately resolve the shippable errors the PR is having and can be merged
