The dns.xfr.Inbound Class and make_query() function

+The ``Inbound`` class provides support for inbound DNS zone transfers,
+both AXFR and IXFR. It is invoked by I/O code, i.e.
+:py:func:`dns.query.inbound_xfr` or
+:py:func:`dns.asyncquery.inbound_xfr`. When a message related to the
+transfer arrives, the I/O code calls the ``process_message()`` method
which adds the content to the pending transaction.
+The ``make_query()`` function is used to making the query message for
+the query methods to use in more complex situations, e.g. with TSIG or
+EDNS.
