Description

TCP urgent is not supported specifically by Suricata, but it's also very unclear that good support would look like. A whole range of RFC's define, redefine the concept, and real work implementations appear to match none of them. Since the behavior is not only OS specific, but can also depend on OS-wide settings and per application settings, it's impossible to reliably support all possible cases of TCP urgent.

Therefore, the idea is to implement a packet normalizer (#1979) that can strip the behavior, or simply drop the packets.
