    Domain Import/Export

We need to decide on the endpoint to use. Choices are:

1. Existing /zone, with Accept: text/dns and Content-type: text/dns to signify export/import
2. New /zonefile endpoint

For /zone, there is hesitance about having the same endpoint do multiple things depending on the content type, and it would be confusing for new users. But it makes a lot of sense with REST: different content, and representations, for the same resource (the zone).

For /zonefile, it's easier for new users, and other Openstack projects use the Accept and Content-type headers for request/response format, not content.
