[Bro-Dev] [JIRA] (BIT-1215) bro-cut should be rewritten in C for speed and to not depend on gawk

[Slagell, Adam J]

We are going to make it configurable and default to like a 1000KB line. Otherwise, you add a check to see if you need to reallocate memory for every line processed, which seems inefficient for edge cases. Letting the user override the default is a good compromise though.
