... 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.
When we know the module we're creating is definitely a payload, don't
bother looking in the other module sets.
Also removes an exception message that gets ignored anyway because the
exception class has a hard-coded #to_s
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.

Sometimes, the database is active but the cache isn't filled out, or
doesn't contain the module you want. This can come up especially when
msfconsole first starts and you are programmatically searching for
modules, for whatever reason.
This allows for falling back to the regular (slow) search in the event
no hits have been returned. It does not actually address the caching
problem seen in QA, but it's generally going to be Good Enough. Search
is getting overhauled Real Soon Now anyway.
[FixRM #7533]
Makes it work when using meterpreter. Because "quit" or "exit" in the
console ends up calling die() instead of falling through to whatever's
left in the file, a meterpreter session would never reach the code to
delete itself before this change.
[Fixes#38426061, #38097411]
Msf::Modules::Loader::Directory#read_module_content may calculate a non-existent
module_path that gets passed to File.open causing an Errno::ENOENT exception
to be raised when using the module cache with a module that has been
moved to a new path (as is the case that originally found this bug) or
deleted. Now, the exception is rescued and read_module_content returns
an empty string (''), which load_module detects with
module_content.empty? and returns earlier without attempting to module
eval the (empty) content.
As having Msf::Modules::Loader::Directory#read_module_content rescue the
exception, meant there was another place that needed to log and error
and store an error in Msf::ModuleManager#module_load_error_by_path, I
refactored the error reporting to call
Msf::Modules::Loader::Base#load_error, which handles writing to the log
and setting the Hash, so the error reporting is consistent across the
loaders.
The exception hierarchy was also refactored so that
namespace_module.metasploit_class now has an error raising counter-part:
namespace_module.metasploit_class! that can be used with
Msf::Modules::Loader::Base#load_error as it requires an exception, and
not just a string so the exception class, message, and backtrace can be
logged.
