fix(domains): explain "Points to another address" on the Domains page - #63

Conversation
When a load balancer, CDN or proxy stands in front of the server, every domain resolves to that front address and the DNS column says "Points to another address" for all of them. That is true, but it reads like a fault. The status now carries a short note that this is expected with such a front and that the page cannot check where the address forwards.

Why
On a server that sits behind a load balancer, every domain resolves to the balancer's address, so the DNS column of the Domains page shows a yellow "Points to another address" for all of them. The statement is correct: the panel's stored address is the server's own, and the domains resolve to a different one. But it reads like a misconfiguration, and nothing on the page says otherwise.
What changed
The "Points to another address" status now has a short note under it: this is expected when a load balancer, CDN or proxy stands in front of the server, and the page cannot check where that address forwards to. The status itself, its colour and the comparison rule are unchanged; no other status got a note.
