[Zeek] ftp filesize

File sizes for FTP are a bit tricky.  The scripts are just watching
for the server to indicate the file size in a reply message.  I'm not
sure if the file size is transmitted by the client when a file is
being uploaded, I'd have to refer to some pcaps.  If it is indicated
by the client then I think we could view that as a missing
implementation though.
