Description

This is a feature request to support multiple instances via uci config similar to https-dns-proxy.

I would like the ability to proxy multiple servers on different listening ports via uci config. I use dnsproxy to expose dnsmasq upstream via DoT. However, I am using https-dns-proxy for dnsmasq upstream itself which I would like to replace with dnsproxy.

Research direction

Start by comparing dnsproxy's package configuration with the linked files/etc/init.d/https-dns-proxy init script and reviewing how UCI sections define instances. Add the ability to configure multiple dnsproxy instances with separate listening ports and verify that each configured instance can run concurrently for the described dnsmasq upstream use case.
