| DOMAIN_ELSEWHERE |

DOMAIN_ELSEWHERE() is a helper macro that lets you easily indicate that
a domain's zones are managed elsewhere. That is, it permits you easily delegate
a domain to a hard-coded list of DNS servers.
DOMAIN_ELSEWHERE is useful when you control a domain's registrar but not the
DNS servers. For example, suppose you own a domain but the DNS servers are run
by someone else, perhaps a SaaS product you've subscribed to or a DNS server
that is run by your brother-in-law who doesn't trust you with the API keys that
would let you maintain the domain using DNSControl. You need an easy way to
point (delegate) the domain at a specific list of DNS servers.
For example these two statements are equivalent:
DOMAIN_ELSEWHERE("example.com", REG_NAMEDOTCOM, ["ns1.foo.com", "ns2.foo.com"]);
// ...is equivalent to...
D("example.com", REG_NAMEDOTCOM,
NO_PURGE,
NAMESERVER("ns1.foo.com"),
NAMESERVER("ns2.foo.com")
);
NOTE: The NO_PURGE is used out of abundance of caution but since no
DnsProvider() statements exist, no updates would be performed.
