Appends a domain name using name compression if supported.
Domain name compression attempts to lower the size of a DNS message by avoiding to include repeated domain name suffixes. Instead of adding the full suffix, a pointer to the location of the previous occurence is added. Since that occurence may itself contain a compressed suffix, doing name compression isn’t cheap and therefore optional. However, in order to be able to opt in, we need to know if we are dealing with a domain name that ought to be compressed.
The trait provides a default implementation which simply appends the name uncompressed.
