o Use a more efficient algorithm to update the display of Nmap normal
output in live scans.
zenmapGUI.NmapOutputViewer.NmapOutputViewer.refresh_output calls
zenmapCore.NmapCommand.NmapCommand.get_output, which re-reads the
entire output file (into memory) and then puts it in the text buffer
if it has changed. So already we're storing the whole output twice in
memory. When the text field changes, update_output_colors
re-highlights the whole file.
It should instead only read new text at the end of the output file and
append it to what's already in the text buffer.
