Auxiiary modules already do this, but looks like we forgot to do the
same for post modules.
I also changed the error to allow "reason" in order to be more
informative about what the user should do.
Fix#4307
If the user supplies an invalid session (as in not on the session
list), it will cause a backtrace, because the setup method from
Msf::PostMixin isn't actually called.
We have thought about implementing this in a new OptSession instead.
But you can't use or even pass framework to option_container.rb, so
this is NOT possible.
The original PR was #3956.

Calling init_module_paths takes 6 seconds on my machine even when there are no
files to that are changed just because it takes that long to walk the
directories and gather the mtime for each file. Therefore, calling it
more than once should be avoided. Also, there is no reason to call it
twice as to add paths later, `modules.add_module_paths` should be used.
This allows HandlerSSLCert to be used to pass a SSL certificate into the Meterpreter handler. The datastore has to be passed into handle_connection() for this to work, as SSL needs to be initialized on Session.new. This still doesn't pass the datastore into Meterpreter directly, but allows the Session::Meterpreter code to extract and pass down the :ssl_cert option if it was specified. This also fixes SSL certificate caching by expiring the cached cert from the class variables if the configuration has changed. A final change is to create a new SSL SessionID for each connection versus reusing the SSL context, which is incorrect and may lead to problems in the future (if not already).

Fully-qualify `Msf::MODULE_TYPES`, `Msf::MODULE_ANY`,
Msf::MODULE_ENCODER`, `Msf::MODULE_EXPLOIT`, `Msf::MODULE_NOP`,
`Msf::MODULE_AUX`, `Msf::MODULE_PAYLOAD`, `Msf::MODULE_POST` so that
their usage isn't dependent on nested lexical scoping.
On August 15, shuckins-r7 merged the Metasploit 4.10.0 branch
(staging/electro-release) into master. Rather than merging with
history, he squashed all history into two commits (see
149c3ecc63 and
82760bf5b3).
We want to preserve history (for things like git blame, git log, etc.).
So on August 22, we reverted the commits above (see
19ba7772f3).
This merge commit merges the staging/electro-release branch
(62b81d6814) into master
(48f0743d1b). It ensures that any changes
committed to master since the original squashed merge are retained.
As a side effect, you may see this merge commit in history/blame for the
time period between August 15 and August 22.
This fixes a huge number of hard-to-detect runtime bugs
that occur when a default utf-8 string from one of these
libraries is passed into a method expecting ascii-8bit
