Lua 5.3 adds several awesome features of particular interest to nmap including
bitwise operators and integers, a utf8 library, and standard binary pack/unpack
functions.
In addition to adding Lua 5.3, this branch changes:
o Complete removal of the NSE bit library (in C), It has been replaced with
a new Lua library wrapping Lua 5.3's bit-wise operators.
o Complete removal of the NSE bin library (in C). It has been replaced with a
new Lua library wrapping Lua 5.3's string.pack|unpack functions.
o The bin.pack "B" format specifier (which has never worked correctly) is
unimplemented. All scripts/libraries which use it have been updated. Most
usage of this option was to allow string based bit-wise operations which are no
longer necessary now that Lua 5.3 provides integers and bit-wise operators.
o The base32/base64 libraries have been reimplemented using Lua 5.3's new
bitwise operators. (This library was the main user of the bin.pack "B" format
specifier.)
o A new "bits" library has been added for common bit hacks. Currently only has
a reverse function.
Thanks to David Fifield, Daniel Miller, Jacek Wielemborek, and Paulino
Calderon for testing this branch.
This reverts commit 317eb0de31f40454cd213296e6cee71c1f78e006.
This commit started as a way to fix perceived problems but eventually I found
the script worked correctly (I had a misunderstanding of the purpose). I kept
the small changes but ended up breaking the script anyway. So let's just revert
this.

NSE: make minor adjustments to script
NSE: add new script http-internal-ip-disclosure

Previously, if a host had not domain set, the script would crash when
trying to get the domain portion of the reverse-DNS name. Now, it adds
the blank string and tries to resolve the bare hostname "wpad".
