c9aaf9e753 Added an option to the JSON formatter to use ISO 8601 for timestamps.
- It's not *exactly* ISO 8601 which doesn't seem to support
   subseconds, but subseconds are very important to us and
   most things that support ISO8601 seem to also support subseconds
   in the way I'm implemented it.

a56c343715 Refactored formatters and updated the the writers a bit.
- Formatters have been abstracted similarly to readers and writers now.
 - The Ascii writer has a new option for writing out logs as JSON.
 - The Ascii writer now has all options availble as per-filter
   options as well as global.

Also clarifying usage.

Closes #912.

501328d61a factor out ascii input/output.
First step - factored out everything the logging classes
use ( so only output ).

Moved the script-level configuration to logging/main,
and made the individual writers just refer to it -
no idea if this is good design. It works. But I am happy
about opinions :)

Next step - add support for input...

a5e237f50c The ASCII writer now supports a filter config option
'only_single_header_row' that turns the output into CSV format.

In that mode all meta data is skipped except for a single header line
with the fields names. Example:

    local my_filter: Log::Filter = [$name = "my-filter", $writer = Log::WRITER_ASCII, $config = table(["only_single_header_row"] = "T")];

f73eb3b086 Reworking thread termination logic.
Turns out the finish methods weren't called correctly, caused by a
mess up with method names which all sounded too similar and the wrong
one ended up being called. I've reworked this by changing the
thread/writer/reader interfaces, which actually also simplifies them
by getting rid of the requirement for writer backends to call their
parent methods (i.e., less opportunity for errors).

This commit also includes the following (because I noticed the problem
above when working on some of these):

     - The ASCII log writer now includes "#start <timestamp>" and
      "#end <timestamp> lines in the each file. The latter supersedes
      Bernhard's "EOF" patch.

      This required a number of tests updates. The standard canonifier
      removes the timestamps, but some tests compare files directly,
      which doesn't work if they aren't printing out the same
      timestamps (like the comm tests).

     - The above required yet another change to the writer API to
       network_time to methods.

     - Renamed ASCII logger "header" options to "meta".

     - Fixes #763 "Escape # when first character in log file line".

All btests pass for me on Linux FC15. Will try MacOS next.

630c256a72 Merge remote branch 'origin/topic/gilbert/ascii-header'
* origin/topic/gilbert/ascii-header:
  Updated tests; removed net type from type conversion code.
  Updated header format (see #558)
  Header modification to LogWriterAscii to make it easier for scripts to understand bro log files.

Notes:

    - I've refactored the code a bit, also adapting the style a bit.
      Also edited the header format slightly.

    - I'm skipping the testing/btest/profiles directory, which seems
      unrelated.

    - I'm also skipping the baseline updates as they weren't
      up-to-date anymore. Will update them in a subsequent commit.

597a4d6704 Hopefully the last major script reorganization.
- policy/ renamed to scripts/

- By default BROPATH now contains:
	- scripts/
	- scripts/policy
	- scripts/site

- *Nearly* all tests pass.

- All of scripts/base/ is loaded by main.cc
	- Can be disabled by setting $BRO_NO_BASE_SCRIPTS
	- Scripts in scripts/base/ don't use relative path loading to ease use of BRO_NO_BASE_SCRIPTS (to copy and paste that script).

- The scripts in scripts/base/protocols/ only (or soon will only) do logging and state building.

- The scripts in scripts/base/frameworks/ add functionality without causing any additional overhead.

- All "detection" activity happens through scripts in scripts/policy/.

- Communications framework modified temporarily to need an environment variable to actually enable (ENABLE_COMMUNICATION=1)
	- This is so the communications framework can be loaded as part
	  of the base without causing trouble when it's not needed.
	- This will be removed once a resolution to ticket #540 is reached.
