This is a script-only change that unrolls File::Info records into
multiple files.log entries if the same file was seen over different
connections by single worker. Consequently, the File::Info record
gets the commonly used uid and id fields added. These fields are
optional for File::Info - a file may be analyzed without relation
to a network connection (e.g by using Input::add_analysis()).
The existing tx_hosts, rx_hosts and conn_uids fields of Files::Info
are not meaningful after this change and removed by default. Therefore,
files.log will have them removed, too.
The tx_hosts, rx_hosts and conn_uids fields can be revived by using the
policy script frameworks/files/deprecated-txhosts-rxhosts-connuids.zeek
included in the distribution. However, with v6.1 this script will be
removed.
The following two patterns were identified while reviewing patterns that
match on any characters. The intention likely was to match actual
literal dots.

These functions are now deprecated in favor of alternative versions that
return a vector of strings rather than a table of strings.
Deprecated functions:
- split: use split_string instead.
- split1: use split_string1 instead.
- split_all: use split_string_all instead.
- split_n: use split_string_n instead.
- cat_string_array: see join_string_vec instead.
- cat_string_array_n: see join_string_vec instead.
- join_string_array: see join_string_vec instead.
- sort_string_array: use sort instead instead.
- find_ip_addresses: use extract_ip_addresses instead.
Changed functions:
- has_valid_octets: uses a string_vec parameter instead of string_array.
Addresses BIT-924, BIT-757.
The MHR script involves a "when" statement which can be expensive due to
the way it clones frames/vals. In this case, the fa_file record is
expensive to clone, but this change works around that by unrolling only
the necessary fields from it that are needed to populate a Notice::Info
record. A drawback to this is that the full fa_file or connection
records aren't available in the Notice::Info record when evaluating
Notice::policy hooks for MHR hit notices (though they can possibly be
recovered by using e.g. the lookup_connection() builtin_function).
- Improve or just remove some file magic signatures ported from libmagic
that were too general and matched incorrectly too often.
- Fix MHR script's use of fa_file$mime_type before checking if it's
initialized. It may be uninitialized if no signatures match.
- The "fa_file" record now contains a "mime_types" field that contains
all magic signatures that matched the file content (where the
"mime_type" field is just a shortcut for the strongest match).
- Include a link to a virustotal search in the notice sub message field.
- Give all information returned from Team Cymru in the notice message.
- Add more file types to match on to the default set.
