Here's a patch that allows passing the --address flag multiple times to
dnsmasq. WDYT?

Thanks,

Subject: [PATCH] services: dnsmasq: Support the --address flag.

Introduce a new `addresses' field that translates to passing `--address='
multiple times to dnsmasq.

* gnu/services/dns.scm (<dnsmasq-configuration>): Add an addresses field.
(dnsmasq-shepherd-service): Match the addresses field and translate it to
multiple '--address=' flags.
* doc/guix.texi (DNS Services): Document it.
