This largely copies over Spicy's `.clang-format` configuration file. The
one place where we deviate is header include order since Zeek depends on
headers being included in a certain order.
This introduces a new sampling state-map for expired connections to fix
segfaults that previously occured when passing in a `connection` record
to `Reporter::conn_weird()` for which the internal `Connection` object
had already been expired and deleted. This also introduces a new event
called `expired_conn_weird`, which is similar to `conn_weird`, except
the full `connection` record is no longer available, just the `conn_id`
and UID string.
Merge adjustments:
- Preserved original `base_type_no_ref` argument type as ::TypeTag
- Removed superfluous #pragma guard around deprecated TableVal ctor
- Clarify NEWS regarding MetaHook{Pre,Post} deprecations
- Simplify some `::zeek::` qualifications to just `zeek::`
- Prefixed FORWARD_DECLARE_NAMESPACED macro with ZEEK_

General changes:
* Add -D/--deterministic command line option as
convenience/alternative to -G/--load-seeds (i.e. no file needed, it just
uses zero-initialized random seeds). It also changes Broker data
stores over to using deterministic timing rather than real time.
* Add option to make Reporter abort on runtime scripting errors
Fixes this compiler warning:

if ( ! EVP_DigestInit_ex(c, md, NULL) )
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~^~~~~~~~~~~~~
The Zeek code base has very inconsistent #includes. Many sources
included a few headers, and those headers included other headers, and
in the end, nearly everything is included everywhere, so missing
#includes were never noticed. Another side effect was a lot of header
bloat which slows down the build.
First step to fix it: in each source file, its own header should be
included first to verify that each header's includes are correct, and
none is missing.
After adding the missing #includes, I replaced lots of #includes
inside headers with class forward declarations. In most headers,
object pointers are never referenced, so declaring the function
prototypes with forward-declared classes is just fine.
This patch speeds up the build by 19%, because each compilation unit
gets smaller. Here are the "time" numbers for a fresh build (with a
warm page cache but without ccache):

Otherwise, setting Reporter::errors_to_stderr=F causes important
error messages to be lost (and this setting is the default for
ZeekCtl). E.g. now that we terminate if there's errors during
zeek_init, GH-369 shows that the only error message given was
"fatal error: errors occurred while initializing", which is not
helpful in determining the actual issue.
This changes many weird names to move non-static content from the
weird name into the "addl" field to help ensure the total number of
weird names is reasonably bounded. Note the net_weird and flow_weird
events do not have an "addl" parameter, so information may no longer
be available in those cases -- to make it available again we'd need
to either (1) define new events that contain such a parameter, or
(2) change net_weird/flow_weird event signature (which is a breaking
change for user-code at the moment).
Also, the generic handling of binpac exceptions for analyzers which
to not otherwise catch and handle them has been changed from a Weird
to a ProtocolViolation.
Finally, a new "file_weird" event has been added for reporting
weirdness found during file analysis.
* origin/topic/johanna/weird-options:
Update test baselines (weird options)
Weird settings: make constants into options.
Permit weird sampling rate of 0.
The generation of weird events, by default, are now rate-limited
according to these tunable options:
- Weird::sampling_whitelist
- Weird::sampling_threshold
- Weird::sampling_rate
- Weird::sampling_duration
The new get_reporter_stats() BIF also allows one to query the
total number of weirds generated (pre-sampling) which the new
policy/misc/weird-stats.bro script uses periodically to populate
a weird_stats.log.
There's also new reporter BIFs to allow generating weirds from the
script-layer such that they go through the same, internal
rate-limiting/sampling mechanisms:
- Reporter::conn_weird
- Reporter::flow_weird
- Reporter::net_weird
Some of the code was adapted from previous work by Johanna Amann.
This change introduces error events for Table and Event readers. Users
can now specify an event that is called when an info, warning, or error
is emitted by their input reader. This can, e.g., be used to raise
notices in case errors occur when reading an important input stream.
Example:
event error_event(desc: Input::TableDescription, msg: string, level: Reporter::Level)
{
...
}
event bro_init()
{
Input::add_table([$source="a", $error_ev=error_event, ...]);
}
For the moment, this converts all errors in the Asciiformatter into
warnings (to show that they are non-fatal) - the Reader itself also has
to throw an Error to show that a fatal error occurred and processing
will be abort.
It might be nicer to change this and require readers to mark fatal
errors as such when throwing them.
