Nmap dependency reduction

Hi all, I just committed a revision that reduces the number of Nmap build dependencies. It's in /nmap-exp/soc07/nmap r4822. The Nmap makefile creates a file called makefile.dep that contains the dependencies of all the object files. Because of many preprocessor includes of header files, lots of object files depended on more than they needed to. The patch removes unused header includes, moves some header includes from .h to .cc files, and uses a few forward references to reduce the number of dependencies of many of the object files. This should reduce in some cases the time spent compiling after modifying a file. This revision touches a lot of files, so watch out for conflicts when you update.
