networking in v3 #277

i’m not sure what to think about the new option for connecting and sending results to an external site. it may raise some eyebrows. even though we know this is benign, not all organizations are as trusting. since the scanner runs as root it should not be making any network calls in my opinion.

maybe a better solution would be to organize uploads of the output using separate tool or via a website.

@k3it 2.x version also provides syslog networking and some users using it for centralized reporting. I'll provide minified version without --enable-https in the next releases.
