- On-demand access to sumstats results through "return from"
functions named SumStats::request and Sumstats::request_key.
Both functions are tested in standalone and clustered modes.
- $name field has returned to SumStats which simplifies cluster
code and makes the on-demand access stuff possible.
- Clustered results can only be collected for 1 minute from their
time of creation now instead of time of last read.
- Thresholds use doubles instead of counts everywhere now.
- Calculation dependency resolution occurs at start up time now
instead of doing it at observation time which provide a minor
cpu performance improvement. A new plugin registration mechanism
was created to support this change.
- AppStats now has a minimal doc string and is broken into hook-based
plugins.
- AppStats and traceroute detection added to local.bro
Closes#1003.
