1. Add port info to hosts

Re-use hosts setup and add domain and port information to each host

"overseerr" = {
    ip = "192.168.0.105";
    mac = "8E:21:7F:88:3A:83";
    # new stuff
    exposes = {
        requests = {
            domain = "requests.xirion.net";
            port = 3000;
        };
        ...
    };
}

which then can get translated to nginx config:

virtualHosts."requests.xirion.net" = proxy "http://192.168.0.105:80";

Ideally hosts should also be able to access their own host information more easily so that in service config one could use thisHost.exposes.requests.port or similar, and the firewall can automatically be opened

2. Authoritative nameserver

Using the definitions from (1), we can then also build authoritative DNS records by folding over hosts[i].exposes.requests.domain and collating that with its realm (and therefore external IP)

This also means I should probably put the external IP in some kind of meta block per realm.

dns.nix seems to be a nice DSL for DNS stuff
