gclark updated BIT-1241:
------------------------
Description:
We should disable strict type sanity checking in HandlePluginResult for bro
functions that return TYPE_ANY.
This is needed to wrap functions such as Queue::get() where the function is
declared with a return type of 'any', but often returns items that are of a
specific type (e.g. record). Although a returned record value is valid, the
type sanity check in Func::HandlePluginResult fails because TYPE_RECORD !=
TYPE_ANY.
