Jon Siwek d84f6e012c Fix various documentation, mostly related to file analysis.
- Fix examples/references in the file analysis how-to/usage doc.

- Add Broxygen-generated docs for file analyzer plugins.

- Break FTP::Info type declaration out in to its own file to get
  rid of some circular dependencies (between s/b/p/ftp/main and
  s/b/p/ftp/utils).

##! A detection script for GridFTP data and control channels.
##!
##! GridFTP control channels are identified by FTP control channels
##! that successfully negotiate the GSSAPI method of an AUTH request
##! and for which the exchange involved an encoded TLS/SSL handshake,
##! indicating the GSI mechanism for GSSAPI was used. This analysis
##! is all supported internally, this script simple adds the "gridftp"
##! label to the *service* field of the control channel's
##! :bro:type:`connection` record.
##!
##! GridFTP data channels are identified by a heuristic that relies on
##! the fact that default settings for GridFTP clients typically
##! mutally authenticate the data channel with TLS/SSL and negotiate a
##! NULL bulk cipher (no encryption). Connections with those
##! attributes are then polled for two minutes with decreasing frequency
##! to check if the transfer sizes are large enough to indicate a
##! GridFTP data channel that would be undesireable to analyze further
##! (e.g. stop TCP reassembly). A side effect is that true connection
##! sizes are not logged, but at the benefit of saving CPU cycles that
##! otherwise go to analyzing the large (and likely benign) connections.
