Make CNAME records optionally use the current zone name

In pgeodns they didn't because the whole data structure
was shared between different origin names if they used
the same .json.

+## 2.2.0

+- The CNAME configuration changed so the name of the current zone is appended
+to the target name if the target is not a fqdn (ends with a "."). This is a rare
+change not compatible with existing data. To upgrade make all cname's fqdn's until
+all servers are running v2.2.0 or newer.
