A new set of functions yr_scanner_* has been added to the API. The purpose of these functions is providing a way for using the same YR_RULES object with different sets of values for external variables. With the existing yr_rules_scan_* functions all clients sharing a YR_RULES object were forced to use the same set of values for externals variables, because the external variables were associated to the YR_RULES object. With the new API each client can create a separate YR_SCANNER to be used with the same YR_RULES object. Each YR_SCANNER can have its own set of external variables. The existing API keeps working as usual.
