This cache was added in b6b4967aa, when there was no real Zoom support.
With 63f349319, a proper identification of multimedia stream has been
added, making this cache quite useless: any improvements on Zoom
classification should be properly done in Zoom dissector.
Tested for some months with a few 10Gbits links of residential traffic: the
cache pretty much never returned a valid hit.
This piece of code has multiple problems:
* nDPI is able to detect some TCP protocols even with mid-flows (i.e.
without the initial packets of the session); TLS is the most
significative example
* since e6b332aa4a it is perfectly valid
to not pass the TCP Handshake packets to nDPI
* in any case, we shouldn't call `ndpi_detection_giveup()`. That
function is usually called by the application and we end up calling it
twice in some cases.
The simple solution is to completely remove that code: process these
kinds of flows like everyone else.
Note that the application can always avoid to pass to nDPI any TCP flows
without the initial handshake; the flow managemnt is always up to the
application.
Looking at the CI results, some rare flows are now processed significantly
longer. As a follow-up we could look into that.
Extend internal unit tests to handle multiple configurations.
As some examples, add tests about:
* disabling some protocols
* disabling Ookla aggressiveness
Every configurations data is stored in a dedicated directory under
`tests\cfgs`
