- Improve or just remove some file magic signatures ported from libmagic
that were too general and matched incorrectly too often.
- Fix MHR script's use of fa_file$mime_type before checking if it's
initialized. It may be uninitialized if no signatures match.
- The "fa_file" record now contains a "mime_types" field that contains
all magic signatures that matched the file content (where the
"mime_type" field is just a shortcut for the strongest match).
Put some methods in file_analysis::Manager that can perform the
matching process and return MIME type results. Also helps to
centralize the management/re-use of a signature matcher object.
Notable changes:
- libmagic is no longer used at all. All MIME type detection is
done through new Bro signatures, and there's no longer a means to get
verbose file type descriptions (e.g. "PNG image data, 1435 x 170").
The majority of the default file magic signatures are derived
from the default magic database of libmagic ~5.17.
- File magic signatures consist of two new constructs in the
signature rule parsing grammar: "file-magic" gives a regular
expression to match against, and "file-mime" gives the MIME type
string of content that matches the magic and an optional strength
value for the match.
- Modified signature/rule syntax for identifiers: they can no longer
start with a '-', which made for ambiguous syntax when doing negative
strength values in "file-mime". Also brought syntax for Bro script
identifiers in line with reality (they can't start with numbers or
include '-' at all).
- A new Built-In Function, "file_magic", can be used to get all
file magic matches and their corresponding strength against a given
chunk of data
- The second parameter of the "identify_data" Built-In Function
can no longer be used to get verbose file type descriptions, though it
can still be used to get the strongest matching file magic signature.
- The "file_transferred" event's "descr" parameter no longer
contains verbose file type descriptions.
- The BROMAGIC environment variable no longer changes any behavior
in Bro as magic databases are no longer used/installed.
- Reverted back to minimum requirement of CMake 2.6.3 from 2.8.0
(it's back to being the same requirement as the Bro v2.2 release).
The bump was to accomodate building libmagic as an external project,
which is no longer needed.

* topic/robin/http-connect:
HTTP fix for output handlers.
Expanding the HTTP methods used in the signature to detect HTTP traffic.
Updating submodule(s).
Fixing removal of support analyzers, plus some tweaking and cleanup of CONNECT code.
HTTP CONNECT proxy support.
BIT-1132 #merged
CONNECT code.
Removal of support analyzers was broken. The code now actually doesn't
delete them immediately anymore but instead just flags them as
disabled. They'll be destroyed with the parent analyzer later.
Also includes a new leak tests exercising the CONNECT code.

This changes the internal type that is used to signal that a vector
is unspecified from any to void.
I tried to verify that the behavior of Bro is still the same. After
a lot of playing around, I think everything still should worl as before.
However, it might be good for someone to take a look at this.

* origin/topic/vladg/socks_fix:
Fix misidentification of SOCKS traffic. Traffic that had a certain bytestring would get incorrectly identified as SOCKS. This seemed to happen a lot with DCE/RPC traffic.
Tweaked the error message and added SetSkip() to the "reserved" case
as well.
BIT-1130 #merged
The amount of timers involved in DNS::PendingMessage tables'
expiration attributes have a significant performance hit. Instead the
script now relies solely on maximum thresholds for pending message
quantities to limit amount of accumulated state. There's a new option,
"DNS::max_pending_query_ids", to limit the number outstanding messages
across all DNS query IDs ("DNS::max_pending_msgs" still limits number
of outstanding messages for a *given* query ID).
