Comment:

• The failing assertion is REQUIRE(msg->state == DNS_SECTION_ANY);.
  I do not think we have seen similar crashes in the past few months.

• Assuming this is a resolver without any secondary zones configured,
  there is just one call to dns_message_setclass() that could have
  triggered the crash: lib/dns/resolver.c:7589. It would be
  interesting to see what state fctx->rmessage is in at the time of
  the crash.

• Some ThreadSanitizer fixes were merged since 9.16.4, but I would
  personally be surprised if any of them actually addressed this
  problem.

• Maybe this is something related to prefetch? Nothing should be
  touching fctx->rmessage->state until a response to a query comes
  in... unless multiple queries are involved?
