this rpc method allows the user to change transport
on an existing meterp session. if it's successful
it will close the old 'session' tied to the rpevious transport

* Increase to reasonable size to handle larger xml file expansion on import
* Prevents the 'RuntimeError entity expansion has grown too large' error that prevents import
Tried to implement some more of the stuff that egypt suggested, managed
to get some in, but not others. Ultimately, its smaller than it was, and
I'm sure there are ways to make it better as well.
For some reason this was only working on Windows7/2008, yet when tired
on Windows 2012 it was resulting in crashes. It was also stopping
working in exploits such as psexec_psh.
Went back to the beginning and started again. With this in place, we can
now do a bit of shellcode golf to make it a bit smaller.
Adjusted payload sizes as well.
* Moved over to using single quotes for strings that don't need
escaping or interpolation.
* Changed one pack spec to be "more correct". Thankfully, we were only
packing 0 so the endianness isn't a problem, however it should be
correct, hence the fix.
This is causing sessions to fail because meterpreter isn't doing the
right thing. I have another fix in the works which will properly solve
this, but in the short term the best way of solving the problem is to
remove this line.
Transport configuration for basic session types can be performed
by the stager mixin.
Add a default transport_config method to Msf::Payload::Stager by
mixing in Msf::Payload::TransportConfig and attempting to guess
the default tranport and direction types from the currently loaded
module's (MSF module) refname.
Users with custom payloads will no longer need to update them with
transport_config methods unless they use a non standard transport,
direction, or other innovation which affects the default approach.
Testing:
Tested with payloads lacking transport_config methods or access
to the TransportConfig module (Ruby) namespace. This also resolves
problems with the RC4 payloads in upstream as they can't currently
generate stagers for meterpreter.
