watcher: a removed nameserver is an NS Change, not an NS Failure (closes #262)
check / check (push) Canceled after 0s

A nameserver that left a domain's delegation was reported twice: as the
domain's NS Change, and by the check of the domain's own records as an
error-level NS Failure saying it disappeared. The check of a name's
records now sends one NS Change at warning level, starting Hostname: or
Domain:, listing the nameservers it was asked at before and not now.
For a domain it leaves out those of its previous delegation, which the
domain's own NS Change lists, so a domain's records are now checked
before its new delegation is saved. Nothing is sent for a nameserver
that joins. The README says what each case gets.

A nameserver that was failing before it left is now listed too; the
NS Failure skipped it.
