The mDNS standard specifies that a responder can announce its departure from the network by sending an unsolicited update of all its records with TTL zero. This is implemented by this patch. When LWIP_NETIF_EXT_STATUS_CALLBACK and MDNS_RESP_USENETIF_EXTCALLBACK are enabled, such goodbye messages are automatically sent when the network interface or link go down. API function mdns_resp_goodbye() is provided for applications to do it explicitly at any time.

The comment at the top of mdns.c mentions more reasons for sending goodbye messages (“DHCP lease about to expire, DHCP turned off...”), we did not implement those because we are not using them (therefore the comment is left there).

The patch applies on top of patch #9904, but I can supply it rebased on master if desired.
