R53_ZONE sets the required Route53 hosted zone id in a R53_ALIAS record.

This directive has no impact when used in anything else than a R53_ALIAS.

Please refer to the R53_ALIAS directive for usage.
ROUTE53: Support Route53's ALIAS record type (#239) (#301) * Stable comparison of metadata (#239) Iterating over a map in Go never produces twice the same ordering. Thus when comparing two metadata map with more than one key, the `differ` is always finding differences. To properly compare records metadata, we need to iterate the maps in a deterministic way. Signed-off-by: Brice Figureau <brice@daysofwonder.com> * Support for Route53 ALIAS record type (#239) Route53 ALIAS doesn't behave like a regular ALIAS, and is much more limited as its target can only be some specific AWS resources or another record in the same zone. According to #239, this change adds a new directive R53_ALIAS which implements this specific alias. This record type can only be used with the Route53 provider. This directive usage looks like this: ```js D("example.com", REGISTRAR, DnsProvider("ROUTE53"), R53_ALIAS("foo1", "A", "bar") // record in same zone R53_ALIAS("foo2", "A", "blahblah.elasticloadbalancing.us-west-1.amazonaws.com", R53_ZONE('Z368ELLRRE2KJ0')) // ELB in us-west-1 ``` Unfortunately, Route53 requires indicating the hosted zone id where the target is defined (those are listed in AWS documentation, see the R53_ALIAS documentation for links). 2018-01-16 18:53:12 +08:00			`---`
