Previously, libraries were loaded by instance_eval'ing them against
the same execution context used for control files. All resources were
registered against a single global registry when the `name` dsl method
was invoked. To obtain seperation of resources, we would mutate the
instance variable holding the globale registry and then change it back
at the end.
Now, we instance_eval library files inside an anonymous class. This
class has its own version of `Inspec.resource` that returns another
class with the resource DSL method and the profile-specific resource
registry.
The goal of these changes is to ensure that the libraries from
dependencies are loaded even if their controls are never included. To
facilitate this, we break up the loading into seperate steps, and move
the loading code into the Profile which has acceess to the dependency
information.

Previously, all resources were loaded into a single resource registry.
Now, each profile context has a resource registry, when a profile's
library is loaded into the profile context, we update the
profile-context-specific resource registry. This local registry is
then used to populate the execution context that the rules are
evaluated in.

This is a minor refactor that I did while studying our loading code in
preparation for some deeper changes to how content loading works. The
overall goal of the refactor is to remove a few places where we were
passing a generic options hash and then only accessing a single item.
The comment hopefully clarifies to new developers in the code base how
content loading works at a high level.

The goal of this change is to provide an isolated view of the available
profiles when the user calls the include_controls or require_controls
APIs. Namely,
- A profile should only be able to reference profiles that are part of
its transitive dependency tree. That is, if the dependency tree for a
profile looks like the following:
A
|- B --> C
|
|- D --> E
Then profile B should only be able to see profile C and fail if it
tries to reference A, D, or E.
- The same profile should be include-able at different versions from
different parts of the tree without conflict. That is, if the
dependency tree for a profile looks like the following:
A
|- B --> C@1.0
|
|- D --> C@2.0
Then profile B should see the 1.0 version of C and profile D should
see the 2.0 profile C with respect to the included controls.
To achieve these goals we:
- Ensure that we construct ProfileContext objects with respect to the
correct dependencies in Inspec::DSL.
- Provide a method of accessing all transitively defined rules on a
ProfileContext without pushing all of the rules onto the same global
namespace.
This does not yet handle attributes or libraries.
Also: Log to STDERR by default
NB: This will result in absolute paths being rendered to lock files. We
think that is OK for now since we are going to build some UX around
path-based dependencies and lock files. Namely, we are going to tell
people it is a bad idea.

Resolved an issue checking ports on windows
The previous version wasn't really checking if a port was accessible as we were only validating if the ping succeeded. Using TcpTestSucceeded to determine if the connection worked or not.
The Molinillo library is a good library for systems that need a
constraint solver that will solve dependency problems requiring a single
version of each named dependency.
In our case, the eventual goal is to allow libraries to have conflicting
transitive dependencies at runtime. Isolation will be provided by
restricting all calls within a given profile to scope which can only see
that profile's dependencies.
To facilitate working on the isolation feature, I've replaced the
Molinillo-based resolver with a minimal resolver which will allow us to
load multiple versions of the same library.
Since we will likely want a good amount of logging around this feature
in the future, I've added a Inspec::Log singleton-style class, replacing
the previous Inpsec::Log which appeared unused in the code base.

This adds a basic prototype of inspec.lock. When the lockfile exists on
disk, the dependencies tree is constructed using the information in the
lock file rather than using the resolver.

This extends the dependency feature to include support for url-based
dependencies. It takes some deviations from the current support for
URLs that we'll likely want to make more consistent.
By default, we store downloaded archives in the cache rather than the
unpacked archive. However, to facilitate debugging, we will prefer the
unpacked archive if we find it in the cache.

This commit is the foundation of the dependency resolution as described in https://github.com/chef/inspec/issues/888 .
It currently only works with local dependencies, as seen in the example inheritance profile.
Tests and full resolution are coming next on the path to an MVP implementation.
Redhat conf_dir detection was regressed in 57d7275 which inadvertently
removed the setting of @conf_dir. Any attempt to use the postgres
resource on RHEL would rain an exception:
inspec> postgres.data_dir
TypeError: no implicit conversion of nil into String
Further, the redhat detection code appears to assume that RHEL always
uses versioned data directories. This however, does not appear to be the
case:
$ cat /etc/redhat-release
CentOS release 6.7 (Final)
$ sudo ls /var/lib/pgsql/
backups data pgstartup.log
The code now can handle both versioned and un-versioned directory
formats on RHEL. Further, it provides diagnostic warnings about
uncertainty in the discovered data directories and configuration
directories.

Previously, if you typed more than 20 characters at the prompt and
attempted pressed Ctrl+a (readline's "Move to start of line" command),
your prompt would appear at the ~11th character from the start of the
line, unable to go further back.
This was a result readline counting the terminal escape sequences we use
for color output as part of the line.
Wrapping these sequences in \001 and \002 instructs readline to ignore
them when doing calculations regarding line-length, resolving the
problem.
This adds a new subcommand:
inspec env [SHELL]
which outputs a shell-appropriate completion script that the user can
source into their shell:
eval "$(inspec env SHELL)"
Currently, we provide completions for ZSH and Bash. The completion
scripts are generated from the data Thor collects.
If the user doesn't provide SHELL we attempt to detect what the user's
shell may be using a number of methods.

(1) The field is not yet optimal, the calculations are great!
(2) Changing this field should go together with all other breaking json changes, especially if https://github.com/chef/inspec/pull/811 results in a change.
This allows the user to write:
describe port(22) do
it { should be_listening }
end
as well as
describe port('22') do
it { should be_listening }
end
without hitting an error.
