Challenge 4 script

Below is the output and results from script #4 from the api-challenge.
The script first checks if a domain exists. By default it will terminated but if you specify the -d options it will delete the existing domain before proceeding.
Next adds a new A record according to the provided arguments.
Once the A record is added it tries to find the domain again and prints all info about it.
After it finishes it doesn't delete the created domain.
