[Bro] Bro and Snort together

[Jason Williams]

I've had instances where i have used zbalance_ipc to help load balance
larger links for moloch. You can also use zbalance_ipc to create duplicate
zc streams that you can attach different processes to. I run bro / suri on
the same interface and haven't seen issues in operation.
