Open-AudITBug

Fixed a bug in the linux audit script (not correctly escaping policy.options JSON).

As a result, have changed the audit Linux and audit Windows script to use XML children, instead of attempting to write JSON into the XML.

The associated processing of the audit result in audit_helper.php has been updated to account for this.

Open-AudITNew Feature

Added configuration items for create_change_log_<table>. If set to 'y', change logs will be created for items in that table.

Override ALL items by setting create_change_log to 'n'.

Open-AudITNew Feature

Added configuration items for delete_noncurrent_<table>. If set to 'y', when processing audit data, items that are not current will be deleted from that table.

Override ALL items by setting delete_noncurrent to 'n'.

Open-AudITNew Feature

Added configuration items for create_change_log_netstat_<well_known || registered || dynamic>.

Only 'well known' is set to 'y'. These correspond to ports 0-1024, 1024-49151 and 49152-65535.
