+feat(dns): import a domain's existing records when moving to bunny: new `dns records scan [domain]` (server-side record scan, multiselect, bulk-write) and `dns zones add --import` offer the same migration right after creating the zone; a bad record is reported rather than stranding the batch, and CAA flags/tag survive via corrected `DnsDiscoveredRecord` types in `@bunny.net/openapi-client`

+fix(dns): label the bunny-specific record types with bunny's canonical codes (Pull Zone as PZ, Redirect as RDR, Script as SCR) across listings and pickers, group them under "Bunny" in the interactive type picker, and accept those codes (plus the spelled-out names) when parsing a record type

+feat(dns): `dns zones add` now scans for existing records automatically, then offers a next-steps menu (upload a zone file, add records manually, or continue to nameserver setup) so you can fully populate the zone before delegating; `--import` imports scanned records without prompting and `--no-import` skips the scan and menu
