CoreDNS - v1.11.0

Release Highlights

• Adds support for accepting DNS connections over QUIC (doq).
• Adds CNAME target rewrites to the rewrite plugin.
• Plus many bug fixes, and some security improvements.

This release introduces the following backward incompatible changes:
* In the kubernetes plugin, we have dropped support for watching Endpoint and Endpointslice v1beta, since all supported K8s versions now use Endpointslice.
* The bufsize plugin changed its default size limit value to 1232
* Some changes to forward plugin metrics.
