## Description

The *<plugin name>* plugin is an attempt to provide a minimal CNAME flattening solution that is RFC compliant in accordance with the Cloudflare implementation.

- `FROM`: Original requested NAME
- `TO`: Name to overwrite the A and AAAA records from
- `DNSIP:PORT`: The DNS server and port to resolve the `TO` records from
