Miek Gieben 710c9b111f middleware/root: add it (#330)
This PR adds the *root* middleware that specifies a path where
all zone file (the *file* middleware is the only consumer now) can
be found. It works the same as in Caddy.

Documentation can be found in the README.md of the middleware.

Fixes #307

# root
*root* simply specifies the root of where CoreDNS finds (e.g.) zone files.
The default root is the current working directory of CoreDNS.
A relative root path is relative to the current working directory.
## Syntax
~~~ txt
root PATH
~~~
**PATH** is the directory to set as CoreDNS' root.
## Examples
Serve zone data (when the *file* middleware is used) from `/etc/coredns/zones`:
~~~ txt
root /etc/coredns/zones
