This was excercising hooks to validate that they were called. For that
it uses pretty verbose logging. Since version numbers are not stable and
hard to canonify this script already unloads the version module (there
is e.g., code in `base/misc/version` which splits the version strings
and works on single components which might appear like pretty ordinary
floating point numbers in the log).
This test however worked under the assumption that nothing in bare mode
loads `base/misc/version` which is hard to guarantee, especially
considering that plugins can be embedded and might load that module
themself.
With this patch we now make the logging slightly less verbose so that
function call arguments are not logged anymore.
The new hooks works similar to the existing `HookLoadFile` but,
additionally, allows the plugin to return a string that contains the
code to be used for the file being loaded. If the plugin does so, the
content of any actual file on disk will be ignored (in fact, there
doesn't even need to be a file on disk in that case). This works for
both Zeek scripts and signatures.
There's a new test that covers the new functionality, testing loading
both scripts and signatures from memory. I also manually tested that the
debugger integration works, but I don't see much of a way to add a
regression test for that part.
We keep the existing hook as well for backwards compatibility. We could
decide to deprecate it, but not sure that buys us much, so left that
out.
Closes#1757.
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):

This commit fixes and extends the behavior of HookLoadFile. Before this
change, HookLoadFile appended ".bro" to each path that was @loaded, even
if the path specified directory names. Furthermore it only gave the path
of the file as it was specified in the Bro script without revealing the
final path of the file that it was going to load.
This patch changes this behavior - in addition to giving the unmodified
path given in the @load command, the hook now returns the resolved path
of the file or directory it is going to load (if found). The hook is
furthermore raises for @load-sigs and @load-plugin; a enum specifies the
kind of load that is happening.
The two hooks being added are:
void HookLogInit(const std::string& writer, const std::string& instantiating_filter, bool local, bool remote, const logging::WriterBackend::WriterInfo& info, int num_fields, const threading::Field* const* fields);
which is called when a writer is being instantiated and contains
information about the fields being logged, as well as
bool HookLogWrite(const std::string& writer, const std::string& filter, const logging::WriterBackend::WriterInfo& info, int num_fields, const threading::Field* const* fields, threading::Value** vals);
which is called for each log line being written by each writer. It
contains all the data being written. The data can be changed in the
function call and lines can be prevented from being written.
This commit also fixes a few small problems with plugin hooks itself,
and extends the tests that were already there, besides introducing tests
for the added functionality.

Updating plugin.hooks baseline so that test succeeds
Revert spacing change that shouldn't have been included with the previous changeset ... should fix all of the plugin tests save hooks, which needs to be updated.

Reverting change to const status of network_time. Also, see FIXME: in Func.cc / HandlePluginResult ...
Tweaks to result handling to make things a little more sane.
Plugin API: minor change (adding parent frame) to support calling methods from hook. Also declare network time update argument to be const because good practice.
