This is still being reviewed by Dnsmasq. It would be great if this could
still make it into OpenWrt 21.02. This extends firewall capabilities
with DNS name pattern based DNS query filtering on a per client basis.

Furthermore, the uboot-envtools problem is currently breaking the build.
See topic: 'uboot-envtools build error in openwrt-21.02'.
