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.
Addresses BIT-1143.
- The reassembly behavior can be modified per-file by enabling or
disabling the reassembler and/or modifying the size of the reassembly
buffer.
- Changed the file extraction analyzer to use the stream to avoid
issues with the chunk based approach not immediately triggering
the file_new event due to mime-type detection delay. Early chunks
frequently ended up lost before.
- Generally things are working now and I'd consider this in testing.
This cleans up internals of how analyzer instances get identified by the
tag plus any args given to it and doesn't change script code a user
would write.
- Remove script-layer data input interface (will be managed directly
by input framework later).
- Only track files internally by file id hash. Chance of collision
too small to justify also tracking unique file string.
Thanks to git this merge was less troublesome that I was afraid it
would be. Not all tests pass yet though (and file hashes have changed
unfortunately).

This works around a bug in libmagic since version 5.12 (current at
time of writing is 5.14) -- second call to magic_load() w/ non-default
database segfaults.
- FileAnalysis::Info is now just a record used for logging, the fa_file
record type is defined in init-bare.bro as the analogue to a
connection record.
- Starting to transfer policy hook triggers and analyzer results to
events.
