Fixed direct connection to always use the same query as of UNION query SQL injection (= one query with multiple columns/entries output).
Minor fixes to Firebird/Access/SQLite connectors to use connector's execute()/fetchall() as wrapper for third-party libraries' methods.
Forced conf.timeout to 10 seconds when directly connecting to database.
Slightly improved regular expression to parse -d parameter.
Added import check for all connectors' third-party libraries.
Code refactoring:
* Moved conf.direct request to direct() function in lib/request/direct.py (code reused where needed).
* Back-delegated to generic connector close() and other methods.
Initial support for Firebird (30% approx).
Initial support for Access (10% approx).
Shared libraries code/installation scripts ported to 64bit, directory structure adapted.

Changes:
* Major enhancement to the Microsoft SQL Server stored procedure
heap-based buffer overflow exploit (--os-bof) to automatically bypass
DEP memory protection.
* Added support for MySQL and PostgreSQL to execute Metasploit shellcode
via UDF 'sys_bineval' (in-memory, anti-forensics technique) as an
option instead of uploading the standalone payload stager executable.
* Added options for MySQL, PostgreSQL and Microsoft SQL Server to
read/add/delete Windows registry keys.
* Added options for MySQL and PostgreSQL to inject custom user-defined
functions.

'output/hostname/session' file if -s option is not specified.

files from the DBMS underlying file system.
