Use an [acme-dns](https://github.com/joohoi/acme-dns) server to handle the validation records.
The plugin will ask you to choose an endpoint to use. For testing the `https://auth.acme-dns.io/`
endpoint is useful, but it is a security concern. As the readme of that project clearly states:
-"You are encouraged to run your own acme-dns instance."

# DNS validation
DNS validation works as follows:
- For each domain, e.g. `sub.example.com`, the ACME server provides a
-challenge consisting of an `x` and `y` value (it's a little more complicated than that,

+challenge consisting of an `x` and `y` value. The truth is actually a little
+more complicated than that, but for the sake of this explanation it will suffice.
- The client has to make sure that when the ACME server requests the TXT
records for `_acme-challenge.sub.example.com`,
there should be at least one record called `x` with content `"y"`.
