Seth Hall a7f6e4c582 Adding metrics framework intermediate updates.
- Since each host in a cluster has it's own view of the metrics
  the only time the manager would get a chance for a global view
  is the break_interval.  This update improves that time.  If a
  worker crosses 10% of the full threshold, it will send it's
  value to the manager which can then ask the rest of the cluster
  for a global view.  The manager then adds all of the values for
  each workers metric indexes together and will do the notice
  if it crosses the threshold so that it isn't dependent on
  waiting for the break interval to hit.  This functionality
  works completely independently of the break_interval too.  Logging
  will happen as normal.

- Small update for SSH bruteforcer detection to match additions in
  the metrics framework API.

- The hope is that this update is mostly invisible from anyone's
  perspective.  The only affect it should have on users is to better
  the detection of metric values crossing thresholds on cluster
  deployments.

This is release 1.6 of Bro, a system for detecting network intruders in
real-time using passive network monitoring.

Please see the file INSTALL for installation instructions and
pointers for getting started. For more documentation, see the
documentation on Bro's home page:

    http://www.bro-ids.org/docs

The main parts of Bro's documentation are also available in the doc/
directory of the distribution. (Please note that the documentation
is still a work in progress; there will be more in future releases.)

Numerous other Bro-related publications, including a paper describing the
system, can be found at
