This is to avoid ambiguity between compressed hex notation and
module namespacing, both which use "::". E.g.: "aaaa::bbbb" could
be an identifier or an IPv6 address, but "[aaaa::bbbb]" is now
clearly the address.
Also added IPv6 mixed notation to allow an IPv4 dotted-decimal
address to be specified in the lower 32-bits.
The signatures of script-layer functions 'discarder_check_ip',
'discarder_check_tcp', 'discarder_check_udp', and 'discarder_check_icmp'
were changed to use the more general 'pkt_hdr' type as a parameter
instead of individual header types.
- The script-layer 'pkt_hdr' type is extended with a new 'ip6' field
representing the full IPv6 header chain.
- The 'new_packet' event is now raised for IPv6 packets (addresses #523)
- A new event called 'ipv6_ext_header' is raised for any IPv6 packet
containing extension headers.
- A new event called 'esp_packet' is raised for any packets using ESP
('new_packet' and 'ipv6_ext_header' events provide connection info,
but that info can't be provided here since the upper-layer payload
is encrypted).
- The 'unknown_protocol' weird is now raised more reliably when Bro
sees a transport protocol or IPv6 extension header it can't handle.
(addresses #522)
Still need to do IPv6 fragment reassembly and needs more testing.
Seems to work -- all test pass.
But there are thread-safety issues at the moment, because the constructors of IPAddr and IPPrefix are not thread-safe, but needed by workers.

* change internal reader interface again
* remove some quite embarassing bugs that must have been in the interface for rather long
* add different read methods to script & internal interface (like normal, streaming, etc). Not implemented in ascii reader yet.
- Large rework on packet filter framework to make many things easier.
- Removed the PacketFilter::all_packets variable because it was confusing.
- New variable (PacketFilter::enable_auto_protocol_capture_filters) to re-enable the old filtering model of only sniffing ports for analyzed protocols.
- In progress plugin model for adding filtering mechanisms.
- New default single item for capture_filters = { ["default"] = PacketFilter::default_capture_filter };
- Mechanism and helper functions to "shunt" traffic with filters.
- Created the Protocols framework to assist with reworking how base protocol scripts are registered with DPD and other things.
- Protocols framework creates BPF filters for registered analyzers. (if using PacketFilter framework in that mode).
But: there are still a few places where I am sure that there are race conditions & memory leaks & I do not really like the current interface & I have to add a few more messages between the front and backend.
But - it works :)
most stuff is inplace, logging framework needs a few changes merged before continuing here...

Internally, all BROv6 preprocessor switches were removed and
addr/subnet representations wrapped in the new IPAddr/IPPrefix classes.
Some script-layer changes of note:
- dns_AAAA_reply event signature changed: the string representation
of an IPv6 addr is easily derived from the addr value, it doesn't
need to be another parameter. This event also now generated directly
by the DNS analyzer instead of being "faked" into a dns_A_reply event.
- removed addr_to_count BIF. It used to return the host-order
count representation of IPv4 addresses only. To make it more
generic, we might later add a BIF to return a vector of counts
in order to support IPv6.
- changed the result of enclosing addr variables in vertical pipes
(e.g. |my_addr|) to return the bit-width of the address type which
is 128 for IPv6 and 32 for IPv4. It used to function the same
way as addr_to_count mentioned above.
- remove bro_has_ipv6 BIF
