Fix md5 hash on windows platforms

The installer compares the md5 of the on-disk sql install file with the
signature file shipped alongside. If the signatures do not match, it will
refuse to install osTicket. On Windows(TM) platforms, PHP will automatically
translate newlines to Windows newlines (CRLF), which will corrupt the MD5
hash of the file.

This patch opens the file in binary mode explicitly to prevent the automatic
conversion.
Fixup argument parsing with no args (store_true)
Use internal stdout and stderr objects for logging

Inside cli modules, use internal stdout and stderr objects rather than
writing directly to the PHP outputs. This will allow for significantly
easier regression testing integration.
Fixup Unpacker::unpackage()

- Force destination folder to always have a trailing slash
- Log if verbosity is set to stdout
- Use MD5 to see if copy is necessary
Add deploy cli script

This will allow folks following the git development model to checkout the
sourcecode to one folder, follow an upstream git brach, and deploy the
osticket installation from a current branch to a location somewhere.

The deploy process differs from the unpack process in that it does not
assume to be inside an 'upload/' folder from the install zipball, and it
does not deploy the 'setup/' folder.

The include folder is still supported to be installed elsewhere.

Make the Unpacker arguments extensible

Turns out that the $args passed into the run() method of the Unpacker are
not correctly utilized and so, it is not correctly extensible
Prefer session persistent configuration over database

This will allow setting something in the session and having that value
override the value from the database. If ->persist() is called for a given
key, a following ->get() will result in the session persisted value being
returned. ->set() will still save the value in the database.

This is mostly useful for last-mile scenarios (and future plugins) that need
to affect the configuration of the system without altering the data in the
configuration table.

Force output_compression Off for downloads

Looks like a long standing, yet-to-be-fixed PHP bug, where
zlib.output_compression can result in the output buffer not completely being
flushed. This is especially critical for downloads where the tail of the
file might be lost.
