[#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.
[#36737359]
Fix the YARD docs to document the return values and make them consistent
with the modules being called. Ensure the force flag is passed as an
option to load_modules instead of a positional argument.
[#36737359]
When starting msfconsole, 'bundler/setup' is not required, the
'msf/env/gemcache' is required instead. Unlike 'bundler/setup' the
msf/env gemcache does not do the automatic requires for gems in the
cache, so explicit requires on 'active_support/concern' is needed to get
ActiveSupport::Concern defined. (I could have done require
'active_support' to match the behavior of 'bundler/setup', but a smaller
require seemed more appropriate.
Changed lexical scope when I changed the declaration from module Msf;
class ModuleSet to class Msf::ModuleSet so that constants in Msf would
not automatically resolve.
I wasn't using any the features of ActiveSupport::Concern in
Msf::ModuleManager::Reloading, so remove the extend and just include it
as a regular module.
[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'.
