Suricata

Hello.

I have a scenario where the rrname is empty when replied in a norecurse DNS query.

It seems Suricata isn't able to output the correct rrname in the DNS answer for non-recurse. It outputs "<root>", which means empty. The problem is that i'm not able to easily see which DNS query generated the NS reply and get a serious overflood with "<root>" rrname's.

I can use the `flow_id`, but expected output would be to have the DNS queried rrname also in the DNS answer.

I run suricata-4.1.2

I have attached a sample PCAP. To reproduce:

$ dig +norecurse lulz.microsoft.com
