Old gcc versions (e.g. 4.8.3) won't allow move elision
but newer versions (e.g. 10.2.1) would complain about
the redundant move.

- avoiding inspector to be allocated for each rule
- use two boolean values for expecting macros and lists
- move items of lists alongside name, under info
- use snake case for json output, like we do for e.g alerts
- correctly retrieve evt names
- consider two levels of lists for exception operators

The optimization in https://github.com/falcosecurity/falco/pull/2210
had a bug when the engine uses multiple sources at the same
time--m_syscall_source is a pointer to an entry in the indexed vector
m_sources, but if add_source is called multiple times, the vector is
resized, which copies the structs but invalidates any pointer to the
vector entries.
So instead of caching m_syscall_source in add_source(), cache it in
process_events(). m_sources won't change once processing events starts.

Instead of using a falco_rule struct on the stack, use a single value
inside the falco_source struct. It's mutable as find_source returns a
const struct.
At very high event volumes (> 1M syscalls/second), even the tiny time
it takes to create/destroy the struct starts to add up, and this
switch has some small cpu savings.

When doing some testing of falco on very high event volumes (> 1.5M
events/second), I found that the time taken to look up a falco_source
struct had a non-negligible contribution to cpu usage.
So instead of looking up the source from the source_idx every time,
separately save the source for syscalls in the falco_engine object
directly. The separately saved copy is only used once someone calls
add_source with source="syscall".

The methods that throw exceptions from stringified results need to
additionally pass a rules_contents_t struct. This also meant that they
need to call the filename + content version of load_rules.
To avoid some duplicate code between the two load_rules_file methods,
move the work of opening the file into a private method
read_file(). It can throw an exception, which is passed through for
the void return method and caught + converted into a load_result error
for the method that returns a load_result.
Also, to avoid duplicate code between the void load_rules and
load_rules_file methods, add a private method interpret_load_result()
which throws an exception if the result has an error and prints
warnings otherwise if verbose is true.

Add new load_rules methods that return a result object instead of
throwing exceptions on error. The existing load_rules methods call the
new methods internally and continue to throw exceptions on
error/return individual values on success.
The result is returned as a unique_ptr so it can be populated while
loading rules (as a part of the configuration object) and then move()d
to the return value.

The only use of it was to include in --support output, which is
redundant as the support output already includes the full contents of
each rules file.
Additionally, it wasn't even being updated after the switch from lua
rules loading to c++ rules
loading (https://github.com/falcosecurity/falco/pull/1966/ or
surrounding PRs).
This will simplify follow-on changes to add a real "result" to rules
loading methods, as there will be fewer API variants to support.

This updates the engine to comply and work properly with the newly-introduced
interface design.
