Feature request: Allow unblocking AntiTracker domains, e.g. crash and error-reporting services #439

Feature request

Description

I'm interested in blocking tracking domains (without causing breakage) using iVPN's AntiTracker feature, with the exception of crash and error-reporting services. Currently this is not possible, the only alternative is to use a service like NextDNS instead.

Describe the solution you'd like

Some example servers I'd like to exempt:

*.appcenter.ms
*.backtrace.io
*.bugsnag.com
*.crashlytics.com
*.crashlyticsreports-pa.googleapis.com
*.firebaselogging-pa.googleapis.com
*.firebaselogging.googleapis.com
*.raygun.io
*.sentry.io

appcenter.ms
backtrace.io
bugsnag.com
crashlytics.com
crashlyticsreports-pa.googleapis.com
firebaselogging-pa.googleapis.com
firebaselogging.googleapis.com
raygun.io
sentry.io

This is already the stance of some list maintainers, but others block several of these by default.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Right now I am using NextDNS set under iVPN > Settings > Custom DNS for VPN and have AntiTracker turned off.

On Android you can use a hosts-based blocker like AdAway instead, but that's not possible on iOS.
