[atlas]DNS records for the probes' internet address

Clearly it would be a waste of the probe's constrained resources to make
it do such DNS updates itself.  I didn't mean to suggest that the probe
should change in any way.

The central Atlas system, *already* knows all the necessary information.
 If you check your probe details on the web page, you will see a field
called «Internet Address», which will differ from «Local Address» if the
probe is behind the NAT.  So my idea was simply to set up a DNS server
with a custom zone backend that looked up this information directly from
the central database it's stored in.
