Scripts may now return a key–value table, or such a table in addition to
a string. The table will be automatically formatted for normal output
and will appear as a hierarchy of elements in XML output.
Some history and discussion of this development can be found at
https://secwiki.org/w/Nmap/Structured_Script_Output.

Make cvs-* scripts use host, not nmap, registry
* replace require function calls with stndse.silent_require
* fixed a bug in nse_main that would fail creating scripts.db when a script
fails to load
* reworked some code to provide limited functionality even though SSL is not
present
There are various functions in the internal nmap.socket and nmap.dnet
libraries that are there for technical reasons:
http://seclists.org/nmap-dev/2012/q1/318
The sleep function is exposed through the stdnse namespace because it
fits that library better.
Some code comments said that names such as nmap.new_socket were
deprecated in favor of e.g. nmap.socket.new, but the old names were
never formally deprecated, so I removed those comments.
