b80298a9ad Change how logger node is detected in cluster framework
Instead of assuming the logger node always has the name "logger", now
broctl will set a boolean which the cluster framework scripts can use
to determine if there is a logger node or not.

Also removed one line from the manager node script, because it has to do
with logging, which the logger.bro script handles.

f45a3e8878 Add a new node type for logging
Changed the cluster framework scripts by adding a new Bro node type
for doing logging (this is intended to reduce the load on the manager).
If a user chooses not to specify a logger node in the cluster
configuration, then the manager will write logs locally as usual.

506a42638a Omit loading local-<node>.bro scripts from base cluster framework.
The loading of these is better handled by BroControl and it seems
odd to load them from a base/ script anyway since they'll contain
site/policy specific code.

Addresses #663

da9b8cc283 Modification to the Communication framework API.
- Simplified the communication API and made it easier to change
  to encrypted connections by not having separate variables to
  define encrypted and unencrypted ports.

- Now, to enable listening without configuring nodes just
  load the frameworks/communication/listen script.

- If encrypted listening is desired set the following:
	redef Communication::listen_encrypted=T;

- Accompanying test updates.

33fce8a71d Misc. doc/script/test cleanup.
- fixing some Metrics::add_data() call signatures
- slight refactors to cluster framework @if and adding a NONE NodeType for
  so local_node_type() will return that instead of just emitting an error
  when cluster mode isn't enabled
- `make restdoc` target now uses bro's bare-mode
- bro scripts generated from bifs now really only live in the build/src/base/
  directory and changed the DocSourcesList.cmake to dynamically figure out
  what bifs exist by looking in src/ instead of build/src/
- add some missing @load dependencies

3919a35b9b Metrics framework update. Mostly to make metrics work on clusters.
- Metrics now work on cluster deployments with no caveats.  It should be
  completely transparent.  Intermediate updates to speed some detection
  will come later.

78e69a0bc8 Cluster nodes aren't in fact inherently controllable.
- This @load needs to move to broctl.

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.
