Annoucement: External port ranges

We just released external port ranges :tada:

You can expose multiple ports from your app that point to the same internal port. External port definitions now allow specifying start_port and end_port, which are internally translated to a list of ports.
For example, start_port: 8080, end_port: 8085 points external ports 8080, 8081, 8082, 8083, 8084 and 8085 to your internal_port.

How?

In fly.toml:

[[services.ports]]
  handlers = ["http"]
  start_port = 8080
  end_port = 8085

When creating a machine with fly machines run:

fly machines run -p 8080-8085:1234/tcp:http [...]

Brilliant. Does it work for UDP, too?
