Implementation of both nonrecursive and recursive forwarding

Description

PowerDNS presently does not have the capability to perform both recursive and nonrecursive forwarding. Only the latter is supported. This enhancement is needed for some unusual DNS configurations. BIND presently does forwarding with RD.

One way to implement this would be to add an additional configuration option, such as "forward-zones-rd", which would function like "forward-zones" but send the request with RD.

While it would be possible to simply change forward-zones to use RD, this could break some existing setups in unexpected ways. Having the capability to do both would be very useful anyway.
