Caveats

• LuaDNS cannot change the default nameserver TTL in nameserver_ttl, it is forced to fixed at 86400("1d"). This is not the case if you are using vanity nameservers.
• This provider does not currently support the "FORWARD" and "REDIRECT" record types.
• The API is available on the LuaDNS free plan, but due to the limit of 30 records, some tests will fail when doing integration tests.
