Rather than throwing a backtrace with an unresolvable SID, try to get as
much profile data as possible if resolve_sid fails.

Rather than operating on a passed-in HKEY, these open and close the registry
key directly for each operation.
This pattern better reflects the actual API usage within msf, and removes extra
round-trips to open and close the registry key, reducing traffic and increasing
performance. I did not add direct versions of every registry operation.
There was no benefit for more rarely-used operations, other than requiring more
churn in the meterpreters.
The primary beneficiary of this is post exploitation modules that do registry
or service enumeration. See #3693 for test cases.
This adds an extra parameter to most of the post/windows/registry
methods called 'view' that specifies if a registry key should be
accessed as a native process, 32-bit or 64-bit.
Support is added to both the Meterpreter and command-line backends. For
the command backend, a lot of boilerplate is removed from each method in
favor of a few shared commands. There is an error hash that never gets
used, so I removed it as well.
This passes the post/test/registry module with meterpreter, but fails
the command line backend. However, it fails in the same way without
these changes (tested on Windows 8), so I suspect that the command line
session was already not working well, at least with newer versions of
Windows. I might look into figuring out how to fix that, but it looks
pretty fragile to me, parsing for english phrases in the output.
- Many code duplications are eliminated from modules in favor of shared
implementations in the framework.
- Paths are properly quoted in shell operations and duplicate operations are
squashed.
- Various subtle bugs in error handling are fixed.
- Error handling is simpler.
- Windows services API is revised and modules are updated to use it.
- various API docs added
- railgun API constants are organized and readable now.
This commit contains a bunch of work that comes from Meatballs1 and
Lesage, and updates the bypassuac_inject module so that it works on
Windows 8.x and Windows 2012. Almost zero of the code in this module
can be attributed to me. Most of it comes from Ben's work.
I did do some code tidying, adjustment of style, etc. but other than
that it's all down to other people.
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
Note that there are some cases of host-endian left, these
are intentional because they operate on host-local memory
or services.

To be clear, the shell that was tested with was 'windows/shell_reverse_tcp' delivered via 'exploit/windows/smb/psexec'
Additional changes required to fix regex to support the multiline output. Also, InstanceId uses a lower case 'D' on the platforms I tested - PowerShell 2.0 on Windows 2003, Windows 7, Windows 2008 R2 as well as PowerShell 4.0 on Windows 2012 R2.
This method doesn't appear to be used anywhere in the Metasploit codebase currently.
I have a case where on a Windows 2008 R2 host with PowerShell 2.0 the 'have_powershell' method times out. When I interactively run the command I find that the output stops after the PowerShell command and the token from 'cmd_exec' is NOT displayed. When I hit return the shell then processes the '&echo <randomstring>' and generates the token that 'cmd_exec' was looking for. I tried various versions of the PowerShell command string such as 'Get-Host;Exit(0)', '$PSVErsionTable.PSVersion', and '-Command Get-Host' but was unable to change the behavior. I found that adding 'echo. | ' simulated pressing enter and did not disrupt the results on this host or on another host where the 'have_powershell' method functioned as expected.
There may be a better solution, but this was the only one that I could find.
