Subject: [PATCH] [PR #12149/3fa258f5 backport][stable-12] udm_dns_record: fix
 idempotency with shortened IPv6 addresses (#12244)

udm_dns_record: fix idempotency with shortened IPv6 addresses (#12149)

* fix(udm_dns_record): normalize IPv6 addresses before comparison

UCS stores IPv6 addresses in expanded form; providing a shortened address
causes obj.diff() to always detect a difference and report changed=True.
Normalize IPv6 values in the data dict to exploded form before updating
the Univention object.

Fixes #317

* changelog: add fragment for PR 12149

* add type hint

(cherry picked from commit 3fa258f5a84112f7b38ff4074e2ab8bd81d44355)
