Use standard order for DNS Resource Records #88

Section 9.3.1.2 explains the concept of Resource Records as a 5-tuple:

(Name, Value, Type, Class, TTL)

On the other hand, RFC1035 defines this as:

<domain-name> [<TTL>] [<class>] <type> <RDATA>

This latter order is used in the configuration of nameservers, but also in tools like dig:

$ dig github.com
[...]
github.com.		0	IN	A	140.82.121.3

Can we change the order in the book to reflect the standard order?
