Versus from synchronous function calls, which doesn't work well because
the function call can see a script-layer state that doesn't reflect
the state as it will be in terms of the event/network stream.
Other misc:
- Remove HTTP::MD5 notice.
- Add "last_active" field to FileAnalysis::Info record.
- Replace "conn_uids", "conn_ids" fields in FileAnalysis::Info record
with just a "conns" fields containing full connection records.
- The http-methods unit test is failing now, but I think it will be
fixed once I change the file handle callback mechanism to use events
instead.
* send end_of_data event for all kind of streams
* send process_finished event containing exit code of child process for executed programs
* move raw-tests to separate directory
* expose name of input stream to readers
* better handling of some error cases in raw reader
* new force_kill option for raw reader which SIGKILLs progesses on exit
The ordering of events how they arrive in the main loop is a bit peculiar at the moment.
The process_finished event arrives in scriptland before all of the other events, even though
it should be sent last. I have not yet fully figured that out.

* origin/topic/jsiwek/ticket946:
Fix memory leaks resulting from 'when' and 'return when' statements.
Fix three bugs with 'when' and 'return when' statements. Addresses #946
- 'when' statements were problematic when used in a function/event/hook
that had local variables with an assigned function value. This was
because 'when' blocks operate on a clone of the frame and the cloning
process serializes locals and the serialization of functions had an
infinite cycle in it (ID -> BroFunc -> ID -> BroFunc ...). The ID
was only used for the function name and type information, so
refactoring Func and subclasses to depend on those two things instead
fixes the issue.
- 'return when' blocks, specifically, didn't work whenever execution
of the containing function's body does another function call before
reaching the 'return when' block, because of an assertion. This was
was due to logic in CallExpr::Eval always clearing the CallExpr
associated with the Frame after doing the call, instead of restoring
any previous CallExpr, which the code in Trigger::Eval expected to
have available.
- An assert could be reached when the condition of a 'when' statement
depended on checking the value of global state variables. The assert
in Trigger::QueueTrigger that checks that the Trigger isn't disabled
would get hit because Trigger::Eval/Timeout disable themselves after
running, but don't unregister themselves from the NotifierRegistry,
which keeps calling QueueTrigger for every state access of the global.
