Feature request: DNS option #240

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. I've got a wired setup were I want to push tun0 into wlan0 hotspot and the original interface doesn't have the dns properly set up. So when I connect to the hotspot, there is no dns (for example I can load to https://1.1.1.1/ but can't load https://google.com/). When I set DHCP_DNS to 1.1.1.1 on create_ap.conf (by default it's set to gateway) and manually run create_ap (with the config file), it works fine.

Describe the solution you'd like Have an option to manually set the DNS on the advanced options.

I have a custom DNS server in the VPN network. I have added this server's IP in the VPN config, but it doesn't work in the hotspot. It would be great if the vpn settings were used, or alternatively add an option for DNS.
