The initial (prefix) and final (suffix) strings are specified individually
with a variable number of "any" matches that can occur between these.
The previous implementation assumed a single string and rendered it
as *<string>*.

Skimming through the RFC, the previous approach of having containers for most
fields seems unfounded for normal protocol operation. The new weirds could just
as well be considered protocol violations. Outside of duplicated or missed data
they just shouldn't happen for well-behaved client/server behavior.
Additionally, with non-conformant traffic it would be trivial to cause
unbounded state growth and immense log record sizes.
Unfortunately, things have become a bit clunky now.
Closes#3504
While it seems interesting functionality, this hasn't been documented,
maintained or knowingly leveraged for many years.
There are various other approaches today, too:
* We track the number of event handler invocations regardless of
profiling. It's possible to approximate a load_sample event by
comparing the result of two get_event_stats() calls. Or, visualize
the corresponding counters in a Prometheus setup to get an idea of
event/s broken down by event names.
* HookCallFunction() allows to intercept script execution, including
measuring the time execution takes.
* The global call_stack and g_frame_stack can be used from plugins
(and even external processes) to walk the Zeek script stack at certain
points to implement a sampling profiler.
* USDT probes or more plugin hooks will likely be preferred over Zeek
builtin functionality in the future.

With a bit of tweaking in the JavaScript plugin to support opaque types, this
will allow the delay functionality to work there, too.
Making the LogDelayToken an actual opaque seems reasonable, too. It's not
supposed to be user inspected.
This is a verbose, opinionated and fairly restrictive version of the log delay idea.
Main drivers are explicitly, foot-gun-avoidance and implementation simplicity.
Calling the new Log::delay() function is only allowed within the execution
of a Log::log_stream_policy() hook for the currently active log write.
Conceptually, the delay is placed between the execution of the global stream
policy hook and the individual filter policy hooks. A post delay callback
can be registered with every Log::delay() invocation. Post delay callbacks
can (1) modify a log record as they see fit, (2) veto the forwarding of the
log record to the log filters and (3) extend the delay duration by calling
Log::delay() again. The last point allows to delay a record by an indefinite
amount of time, rather than a fixed maximum amount. This should be rare and
is therefore explicit.
Log::delay() increases an internal reference count and returns an opaque
token value to be passed to Log::delay_finish() to release a delay reference.
Once all references are released, the record is forwarded to all filters
attached to a stream when the delay completes.
This functionality separates Log::log_stream_policy() and individual filter
policy hooks. One consequence is that a common use-case of filter policy hooks,
removing unproductive log records, may run after a record was delayed. Users
can lift their filtering logic to the stream level (or replicate the condition
before the delay decision). The main motivation here is that deciding on a
stream-level delay in per-filter hooks is too late. Attaching multiple filters
to a stream can additionally result in hard to understand behavior.
On the flip side, filter policy hooks are guaranteed to run after the delay
and can be used for further mangling or filtering of a delayed record.
We already had these declared in dns/const.zeek, so extend the parser
as well to avoid raising weirds and add some test pcaps:
$ dig @8.8.8.8 DNSKEY ed448.no
$ dig @8.8.8.8 ed448.no +dnssec
And the same for the ed25519.no domain.

This field isn't required by a worker and it's certainly not used by a
worker to listen on that specific interface. It also isn't required to
be set consistently and its use in-tree limited to the old load-balancing
script.
There's a bif called packet_source() which on a worker will provide
information about the actually used packet source.
Relates to zeek/zeek#2877.
This commit adds a multitude of new extension types that were added in
the last few years; it also adds grease values to extensions, curves,
and ciphersuites.
Furthermore, it adds a test that contains a encrypted-client-hello
key-exchange (which uses several extension types that we do not have in
our baseline so far).
The ssl_history field may grow unbounded (e.g., ssl_alert event). Prevent this
by capping using a configurable limit (default 100) and raise a weird once reached.
Unsure what it's used for today and also results in the situation that on
some platforms we generate a reporter.log in bare mode, while on others
where spicy is disabled, we do not.
If we want base/frameworks/version loaded by default, should put it into
init-bare.zeek and possibly remove the loading of the reporter framework
from it - Reporter::error() would still work and be visible on stderr,
just not create a reporter.log.
The dump-events baseline changes are pure noise and have spurred confusion
for internal and external contributors. For example, adding new
analyzers have perturbed orderings of sets holding analyzer tags.
Running in non-bare mode, the baselines change almost whenever any of the
record types attached to connections change in the default scripts. This
causes continuous and seemingly little useful updates to the baselines.
This change switches the test to run in bare mode and explicitly loads
just base/protocols/conn and base/protocols/smtp. The primary intention
of the test should be testing the functionality of the misc/dump-events
script, not the raised events of all loaded default scripts (for that the
used PCAP is too narrow).
Protocol specific scripts that do want to leverage misc/dump-events for
baseline creation of their or their analyzer's events can add additional
specific tests with suitable PCAP files.
Setting this option to false does not count missing bytes in files towards the
extraction limits, and allows to extract data up to the desired limit,
even when partial files are written.
When missing bytes are encountered, files are now written as sparse
files.
Using this option requires the underlying storage and utilities to support
sparse files.

* origin/topic/jazoff/gh-3268:
Fix check for emailed notices
Changes: Added a test-case printing email_delay_tokens to compare email vs
non-email notice types. Previously, both notice types would have email
delay tokens at that point in the flow.
When http_reply events are received before http_request events, either
through faking traffic or possible re-ordering, it is possible to trigger
unbounded state growth due to later http_requests never being matched
again with responses.
Prevent this by synchronizing request/response counters when late
requests come in.
Also forcefully flush pending requests when http_replies are never
observed either due to the analyzer having been disabled or because
half-duplex traffic.
Fixes#1705
This works around the new semantics of is_orig=T for "connections"
from DHCP servers to broadcast addresses. IMO, having the server address
as originator in the conn.log is still more intuitive.
The input framework currently gives a rather opaque error message when
encountering a line in which a required value is not provided. This
change updates this behavior; the error message now provides the record
element (or the name or the index element) which was not set in the
input data, even though it is required to be set by the underlying Zeek
type.
