Is CoreDNS replacing Unbound in 26.07? Is that available to test yet?

No. Though part of its functionality is to act as a DNS forwarder, and for very basic setups it could use CoreDNS alone, there are many things Unbound can do beyond its current capabilities. Currently the recommended setup is to have clients hit CoreDNS first and then use Unbound as its upstream source for queries that make it through CoreDNS filtering and so on.
