This reverts commit d66779ba4c.
Specifically, this commit was causing trouble when a datastore was
getting an Integer. For some reason (as yet undiscovered), the option
normalizer wasn't trying to Integer#to_s such arguments.
This kind of thing is going to happen a lot. For now, I'd rather just
end up with the ducktype, and attack the normalizer in a seperate fix.
The purpose of these functions is to be able to join file/dir paths
safely without trailing slashes, basically for the same reason as
normalize_uri. Some modules are really buggy when merging paths,
so instead of letting them do it, it's better to use these functions.
SEERM #4821
while looking into what it would take to fix bug 4821, I found that there are no specs
for any of the other methods in command dispatcher. I have attempted to add stubs for a
few of the methods and tested a few of the help outputs.
PacketFu should be required from the gem, not from the shipped msf
library. Several modules depend on it being available, so this rspec
test mostly just ensures that Msf::Exploit::Capture mixin is still
around.
[#47720609]
Msf::PayloadSet#add_module does NOT return an annotated module class as
Msf::ModuleSet#add_module does because a payload module is defined as a
ruby Module instead of a ruby Class. Since add_module doesn't always
return an annotated_class, the logic in
Msf::ModuleManager#on_module_load needed to change to NOT use
annotated_class and create #add_module as return [void]. Thus, it is
necessary to pass in all the metasploit module metadata to
Msf::ModuleManager#cache_in_memory instead of assuming they can be
derived from the (payload) Module or (other) Class.
[#47720609]
Msf::ModuleManager#module_info_by_path was not being updated when a
module was loaded, so if a load_module was called again, say during
start up of prosvc, the module would reload even though there was no
change in the file because file_changed? couldn't find an entry for the
module's path in module_info_by_path.
[#47720609]
Fix some docs and variable names to make it clearer when methods are
expecting module instance and module classes. Change some 'name'
variables to 'reference_name' since that's the proper terminology.

Because metasploit-framework runs migrations with the same process and
with the same connection as it later accesses the database, the column
information can become cached prematurely and be incorrect by the end of
the migrations. Fix the bad cache by automatically resetting the column
information for all model classes after the migrations have run.
