More adjustment to reduce Weird volumes.

- New script extracted from weird.bro to implement the
  connection related "weird" data into an optionally
  loaded script.

- Adjusted the default notice tuning to stop ignoring
  the connection related weirds since they aren't loaded
  by default anymore.
