- iosource_mgr can now track write events to file descriptors as well
as read events. This adds an argument to both RegisterFd() and
UnregisterFd() for setting the mode, defaulting to read.
- IOSources can now implement a ProcessFd() method that allows them to
handle events to single file descriptors instead of of having to
loop through/track sets of them at processing time.
The Zeek code base has very inconsistent #includes. Many sources
included a few headers, and those headers included other headers, and
in the end, nearly everything is included everywhere, so missing
#includes were never noticed. Another side effect was a lot of header
bloat which slows down the build.
First step to fix it: in each source file, its own header should be
included first to verify that each header's includes are correct, and
none is missing.
After adding the missing #includes, I replaced lots of #includes
inside headers with class forward declarations. In most headers,
object pointers are never referenced, so declaring the function
prototypes with forward-declared classes is just fine.
This patch speeds up the build by 19%, because each compilation unit
gets smaller. Here are the "time" numbers for a fresh build (with a
warm page cache but without ccache):

- All timers are now handled by a single global timer manager, which simplifies how they handled by the IOSource manager.
- This change flows down a number of changes to other parts of the code. The timer manager tag field is removed, which means that matching connections to a timer manager is also removed. This removes the ability to tag a connection as internal or external, since that's how the connections where differentiated. This in turn removes the `current_conns_extern` field from the `ConnStats` record type in the script layer.
- Removed GetFD and NextTimestamp methods
- Removed concept of idle sources
- Renamed Init to InitSource to avoid a name clash with the thread code
- Added GetNextTimeout method
This commit also removes the FD_Set file since it's no longer used
A bunch of infrastructure work to move IOSource, IOSourceRegistry (now
iosource::Manager) and PktSrc/PktDumper code into iosource/, and over
to a plugin structure.
Other IOSources aren't touched yet, they are still in src/*.
It compiles and does something with a small trace, but that's all I've
tested so far. There are quite certainly a number of problems left, as
well as various TODOs and cleanup; and nothing's cast in stone yet.
Will continue to work on this.
