Closes https://github.com/StackExchange/dnscontrol/issues/3787
This PR is adding a `HETZNER_V2` provider for the "new" Hetzner DNS API.
Testing:
- The integration tests are passing.
- Manual testing:
- `preview` (see diff for existing zone)
- `preview --populate-on-preview` (see full diff for newly created zone)
- `push` (see full diff; no diff after push)
- `push` (see full diff; no diff after push to newly created zone --
i.e. single pass and done)
```js
var REG_NONE = NewRegistrar('none')
var DSP = NewDnsProvider('HETZNER_V2')
D('testing-2025-11-14-7.dev', REG_NONE, DnsProvider(DSP),
A('@', '127.0.0.1')
)
```

Feedback for @jooola and @LKaemmerling:
- The SDK was very useful in getting 80% there! Nice! 🎉
- Footgun:
- The `result` values are not "up-to-date" after waiting for an
`Action`, e.g. `Zone.AuthoritativeNameservers.Assigned` is not set when
`Client.Zone.Create()` returns and the following "wait" will not update
it.
- Taking a step back here: Waiting for an `Action` with a separate SDK
call does not seem very natural to me. Does the SDK-user need to know
that you are processing operations asynchronous? (Which seems like an
implementation detail to me, something that the SDK could abstrct over.)
Can `Client.Zone.Create()` return the final `Zone` instead of the
intermediate result?
- Features missing compared to the DNS Console, in priority order:
- It is no longer possible to remove your provided name servers from the
root/apex. Use-case: dual-home/multi-home zone with fewer than three
servers from Hetzner. I'm operating one of these and cannot migrate over
until this is fixed.
- Performance regression due to lack of bulk create/modify. E.g. [one of
the test
suites](a71b89e5a2/integrationTest/integration_test.go (L619))
spends about 4.5 minutes on making creating 100 record-sets and then
another 4 minutes for deleting them in sequence again. With your async
API, these are `create 2*100 + delete 2*100 = 400` API calls.
Previously, these were `create 1 + delete 100 = 101` API calls. Are you
planning on adding batch processing again?
- Usability nits
- Compared to other record-set based APIs, upserts for record-sets are
missing. This applies to records of a record-set and the ttl of the
record-set (see separate SDK calls for the cases `diff2.CREATE` vs
`diff2.CHANGE` and two calls in `diff2.CHANGE` for updating the TTL vs
records).
- Some SDK methods return an `Action` (e.g. `Zone.ChangeRRSetTTL()`),
others wrap the `Action` in a struct (`Client.Zone.CreateRRSet()`) --
even when the struct has a single field (`ZoneRRSetDeleteResult`).
