proposal. This only affects Nmap's root directory. We might also need to
modify the code which autogenerates Nmap's source code files such as IPv6
fingerprinting code.

Move some includes out of nmap.h: nmap.h gets included lots of places,
and unconditionally included math.h, ctype.h, errno.h, stdio.h,
sys/stat.h, fcntl.h, sys/types.h, and stdarg.h. This commit moves those
includes into the .cc files where they are necessary and out of nmap.h
Remove redundant include global_structures.h, included from nmap.h
Removed redundant code included from nmap.h
Removing #include nbase.h when nmap.h is included (redundant)
Remove duplicate #include lines
Add ifndef guards to a few .h files

a layer 4 protocol used mostly for telephony related applications.
This brings the following new features:
o SCTP INIT chunk port scan (-sY): open ports return an INIT-ACK
chunk, closed ones an ABORT chunk. This is the SCTP equivalent
of a TCP SYN stealth scan.
o SCTP COOKIE-ECHO chunk port scan (-sZ): open ports are silent,
closed ports return an ABORT chunk.
o SCTP INIT chunk ping probes (-PY): host discovery using SCTP
INIT chunk packets.
o SCTP-specific IP protocol scan (-sO -p sctp).
o SCTP-specific traceroute support (--traceroute).
o The ability to use the deprecated Adler32 algorithm as specified
in RFC 2960 instead of CRC32C from RFC 4960 (--adler32).
o 42 well-known SCTP ports were added to the nmap-services file.
Part of the work on SCTP support was kindly sponsored by
Compass Security AG, Switzerland. [Daniel Roethlisberger]
to reuse an ACK ping probe from host detection during a SYN port scan. This can
greatly speed up a scan if the SYN scan finds only filtered ports.
One difficulty with implementing this is that not all ping probes are
appropriate for all scan types.
nmap -PA -sU scanme.nmap.org
would cache the ACK ping probe and send ACK pings during the UDP scan. But the
pcap filter for the UDP scan doesn't catch TCP packets, so the replies would
not be noticed and they would show up as dropped pings. Likewise,
nmap -PR -sS 192.168.0.1
would segfault when it tried to use an uninitialized Ethernet descriptor to
send an ARP ping during the SYN scan, which would use raw sockets.
To fix this I added a function pingprobe_is_appropriate that determines whether
a given ping probe is appropriate for the current scan type. If not, the
constructor for HostScanStats just erases the ping probe.
More types of ping probes could be made "appropriate." TCP timing pings work
during a UDP scan if only the pcap filter is expanded to include TCP packets.
