3bce313b12 Switch file UID hashing from md5 to highwayhash.
This commit switches UID hashing from md5 to a highway hash. It also
moves the salt value out of the file plugin - and makes it
installation-specific instead - it is moved to the global namespace.

There now are digest hash functions to make "static"
installation-specific hashes that are stable over workers available to
everyone; hashes can be 64, 128 or 256 bits in size.

Due to the fact that we switch the file hashing algorithm, all file
hashes change.

The underlyigng algorithm that is used for hashing is highwayhash-128,
which is significantly faster than md5.

22bf3e1196 Increase UIDs to 96 bits w/ C/F prefix - BIT-1016
- The bit-length is adjustable via redef'ing bits_per_uid.

- Prefix 'C' is used for connection UIDS (including IP tunnels) and
  'F' for files.

037d582b0e FileAnalysis: add custom libmagic database.
- It's derived from the magic database of libmagic 5.14, but with most
  everything not related to mime types removed.

- The custom database is always used by default for mime detection, but
  the more verbose file type detection will fall back on the default
  libmagic installation's database.  The result is: mime type strings
  are now guaranteed to be consistent across platforms, but the verbose
  file type descriptions are not.

- The custom database gets installed in $prefix/share/bro/magic, and
  should even be extensible if files with new patterns are added inside
  the directory.

- The search path for the mime magic database can be controlled via
  BROMAGIC environment variable.

- Remove mime_desc field from ftp.log.

- Stop using the mime/file type canonifier with unit tests.

- libmagic >= 5.04 is now a requirement.

7e895a3a2f FileAnalysis: replace script-layer FTP file analysis.
The notable difference here is that ftp.log now logs by default
the PORT, PASV, EPRT, EPSV commands as well as a separate line for
ftp-data channels in which file extraction was requested.

This difference isn't a direct result of now doing the file extraction
through the file analysis framework, it's just because I noticed even
the old way of tracking extracted-file name didn't work right and this
was the way I came up with so that a locally extracted file can be
associated with a data channel and then that data channel associated
with a control channel.

1fd0d7a607 Changing the start/end markers in logs to open/close now reflecting
wall clock.

Triggers lots of (simple) baseline updates.
