Subject: [PATCH] fix(powerdns): use gsqlite3 backend instead of BIND (#12533)

- Comment out empty 'launch=' in pdns.conf that overrides launch+= directives
- Remove default bind.conf and create gsqlite3.conf pointing to the
  Poweradmin SQLite database (/opt/poweradmin/powerdns.db)
- Set correct ownership (pdns:pdns) and permissions (664) on the
  database file so pdns_server can read/write it
- Add www-data to pdns group for shared database access
- Restart pdns service alongside apache2
