It may generally be better for our default use-case, as workers may
save a few percent cpu utilization as this policy does not have to
use any polling like the stealing policy does.
This also helps avoid a potential issue with the implementation of
spinlocks used in the work-stealing policy in current CAF versions,
where there's some conditions where lock contention causes a thread
to spin for long periods without relinquishing the cpu to others.
This signature is relevant for process dumps on Windows that could be extracted by various tools. The unencrypted transmission of the dump of a critical system process (for example, lsass.exe) via network would be detected by this rule.
- rotate_file
- rotate_file_by_name
- calc_next_rotate
These still have use-cases even though no longer used for our logging
functionality. E.g. rotate_file_by_name may be used to rotate
pcap dump files.
Also the log_rotate_base_time option was marked deprecated, but still
used in the new logging framework.
In the past they were processed on the manager - which requires big
records to be sent around.
This has a potential of incompatibilities if someone relied on global
state for notice processing.

SPF response records are identical to TXT records in structure, and
can be parsed and interpreted the same way. However, they have a
different RR type, so they would generate weird events and not be
parsed by Zeek before this change.
Even though they're the same as TXT records from a protocol stance, I
created a new event type (dns_SPF_reply), and call the records out as
SPF in the logs, instead of as TXT records, since the distinction
could be important for detection purposes.
SPF records have been obsoleted, but continue to be seen in the wild.

Adding client_security_data to the analyzer.
I added a unit test.
* "bro_is_terminating" is now "zeek_is_terminating"
* "bro_version" is now "zeek_version"
The old function names still exist for now, but are deprecated.
These are no longer loaded by default due to the performance impact they
cause simply by being loaded (they have event handlers for commonly
generated events) and they aren't generally useful enough to justify it.
The type of the field also changed from "addr" to "string" because the
former cannot represent all possible values of the
Tunnel-Client-Endpoint attribute, which may include FQDNs, not just IP
addresses.
