Feature Suggestion: ANAME Records

A useful feature I've seen used in a few places and are particularly useful for routing your whole setup to a CDN are ANAME records.

From a few places I've seen, ANAME / ALIAS records are 'like' CNAME records, but the DNS server itself returns the IP addresses (instead of a CNAME pointer). One place this works well is the apex domain.

Effectively ANAME == dynamic A record that can have more than one IP address associated.

Example usage: https://help.github.com/articles/tips-for-configuring-an-a-record-with-your-dns-provider/

We already have that, you just enter them as you would enter a CNAME (in the CNAME section of the DNS settings) and when you do that for your zone apex it'll convert it to an ANAME under the hood.
