Description

Heritrix currently records DNS records as text/dns response records. This seems incorrect according to the WARC spec as response records should include the network protocol information and the [DNS wire protocol](https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc1035#section-4.1) uses binary messages (application/dns-message).

Section 6.4.4 of the WARC 1.1 spec suggests using resource records for text/dns.
