The BroFile ctor now wraps /dev/std{in,out,err} string arguments
into the actual FILE* provided by stdio.h because use of the former
directly isn't POSIX compliant and led to subtle differences that
broke unit tests on certain platforms (e.g. OS X redirection of stderr
behavior started differing from Linux). The BroFile (un)serialization
methods already did this kind of logic, so adding it in the ctor also
should make things more consistent.
Some of the reporter-related unit tests looked like they were missing
output because of this, and the coverage test for bare-mode errors
needed tweaking to branch on whether or not libcurl was available
(since the error output differs when elasticsearch isn't there).
Updated README and collected coverage-related tests in a common dir.
There are still coverage failures resulting from either the following
scripts not being @load'd in the default bro mode:
base/frameworks/time-machine/notice.bro
base/protocols/http/partial-content.bro
base/protocols/rpc/main.bro
Or the following result in errors when @load'd:
policy/protocols/conn/scan.bro
policy/hot.conn.bro
If these are all scripts-in-progress, can we move them all to live
outside the main scripts/ directory until they're ready?
