The ESP8266 version of the mDNS library expected service name and protocol without leading _ (underscore). The ESP32 version expected service name and protocol with leading _ (underscore).

This small change makes the ESP32 version compatible with the ESP8266 version and keeps backward compatibility with existing code by accepting service name and protocol either with or without leading _ (underscore).

See issues #962 #387

Tested with following combinations:

  MDNS.addService("test1","tcp",9998);
  MDNS.addServiceTxt("test1", "tcp", "id", "mDNS-Test");

  MDNS.addService("_test2","tcp",9998);
  MDNS.addServiceTxt("_test2", "tcp", "id", "mDNS-Test");

  MDNS.addService("test3","_tcp",9998);
  MDNS.addServiceTxt("test3", "_tcp", "id", "mDNS-Test");

  MDNS.addService("_test4","_tcp",9998);
  MDNS.addServiceTxt("_test4", "_tcp", "id", "mDNS-Test");

The ESP8266 version of the mDNS library expected service name and protocol without leading '_' (underscore). The ESP32 version expected service name and protocol with leading '_' (underscore).

shouldn't this be merged with the line above as:
_hostname = hostName.toLowerCase();

I don't think
String.toLowerCase() make side effect on the object itself and doesn't returns anything

You are right, I was looking at it and it looked odd. Normally a method like this would return the modification rather than do the modification on the object itself. It appears that https://github.com/espressif/arduino-esp32/blob/master/cores/esp32/WString.h#L255 is just doing a direct modification on the object in place.
