Each time the BIND config is changed, all DDNS entries in all master zones are lost because the zone.db is overwritten.
This is a huge problem if you use BIND as master zone server vor Active Directory or you require a permanent working DNS Server with DDNS entries.

Due to the nature of Active Directory, missing DND entries may appear several hours or days later.
Also DHCPD does not update DDNS entries every time, but if "required". Losing of DDNS entries make DHCPD think they are still present and will never add the missing DDNS entries.

I have added the ability to keep all zone records on master zones by merging them to the new zone.db during config changes.
