Ability to use --all-nameservers with IPv4 and IPv6 at the same time #598

@pspacek

Description

@pspacek

Version: commit 92eb2f4

Describe the feature requested
--iterative --all-nameservers CLI option does not actually query all servers - by default it queries only IPv4 servers.

Both families cannot be requested at the same time:

FATA[0000] Cannot specify both --prefer-ipv4-iteration and --prefer-ipv6-iteration

Additional context
Use-case: Detecting inconsistencies in answers between IPv4 and IPv6 name servers.

Solution
Personally I would think both address families should be used by default and knobs --prefer-ipv4-iteration and --prefer-ipv6-iteration can be used to restrict queries to a given address family.
