Remove fastlib as it slows down the code loading process. From the
previous commit, the mean loading for
`METASPLOIT_FRAMEWORK_PROFILE=true msfconsole -q -x exit` was
27.9530±0.3485 seconds (N=10). The mean after removal of fastlib
was 17.9820±0.6497 seconds (N=10). This means an average 35.67%
reduction in boot time.

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.
... since super doesn't exist any more.
Also changes to using ModuleSet#[] inside ModuleManager#[] instead of
ModuleSet#create to mimic original behavior when ModuleManager was a
subclass of ModuleSet.
Instead of deleting all non-symbolics before the re-adding phase of
PayloadSet#recalculate, store a list of old module names, populate a
list of new ones during the re-adding phase, and finally remove any
non-symbolic module that was in the old list but wasn't in the new list.
Also includes a minor refactoring to make ModuleManager its own thing
instead of being an awkard subclass of ModuleSet. Now PayloadSet doesn't
need to know about the existence of framework.modules, which makes the
separation a little more natural.

The merging of reload_module and the various load_module methods
resulted in the module loading from disk, but because the Hash entry in
the module manager was not deleted before on_module_load was called, the
newly reloaded module was logged as an ambiguous module name instead of
a reload. In order to report the reload errors correctly, I determined
that module_load_error_by_reference_name should really be
module_load_error_by_path. I eliminated faild in favor of this new name
since failed was just calling the attribute and the attribute's name is
clearer about the format of the data.
Tested by run rexploit and then exiting over and over with
ms08_067_netapi. When I messed up the file so it couldn't load, by
adding `inclde Exploit` (note mispelling of `include`), it reported the
error to msfconsole. When I removed the bad line and added a puts
"RELOADING <n>", where I kept incrementing n and saving the file, the
new number appeared during each rexploit.

Refactor the behavior of loading symbolic modules from cache by renaming
methods so it's clearer what they do and ensure that cached modules from
Fastlibs and directories can both be loaded, which was not previously
possible since the demand_load_module only called load_module_from_file.
[#36737359]
On Linux, some of the unqualified constants that resolve on Mac OS X,
don't resolve, so to prevent errors (and because I can't justify why the
unqualified constants should resolve on OS X), I'm qualifying all the
Msf constants that are referenced in the code I've refactored.
[Fixes#36737359]
Refactor Msf::ModuleManager into concerns so its easier to understand and
duplicate code can be made DRY. The refactoring also ensures that when
loading from directories, Fastlibs, or reloading, the wrapper module will
always be named so that activesupport/dependencies will function.
[#36737359]
active_support/dependencies cannot resolve missing constants in Metasploit
modules because the wrapper module is anonymous. In order to make the
wrapper module non-anonymous, the module must be assigned to a constant.
Since we don't want modules colliding, the wrapper module needs a unique
name, so use the module lookup name to derive the proper nested module names
to namespace the wrapper module. All derived modules are nested under
Msf::Modules. The name derivation handles invalid characters for constant
names such as digits as the first character or non-alphanumeric character.
The invalid constant name characters are converted to their hex value and
prefixed with X, so '-' in a name become 'X2d'.
When using the reload_all command, the framework will trigger an
'undefined method module_history' error, because we're missing
an accessor.
Also, even though reload_modules returns "counts". That actually
returns a hash instead of a real count of modules... the return
value is also never actually used anywhere. But to make this
part not broken, we return the actual count.
* Don't print module file path twice on the same line
* Use print_error instead of print
* Remove unnecessary newlines
