## Description

mosdns is a DNS forwarding server and traffic filter that routes DNS queries to multiple upstream providers. It functions as a rule-based DNS router and a proxy for DNS-over-HTTPS and DNS-over-TLS to ensure secure DNS resolution.

The system utilizes a pipeline-based request processing model and rule-based query routing to direct specific domain queries to different upstream servers. It implements pluggable transport layers and forwarding protocols, including HTTPS, TLS, and QUIC, to encrypt traffic and prevent eavesdropping.

The project includes capabilities for upstream load balancing to distribute queries across providers, as well as asynchronous concurrent handling to manage multiple simultaneous requests. It provides tools for DNS traffic filtering and custom routing through user-defined matching rules.
