[NSE][PATCH] patch for datafiles.lua to use nmap.fetchfile() directly

Hi,currently datafiles.parsefile() looks for the passed filename in the directory where it finds nmap-rpc,nmap-services or nmap-protocols. The attached patch makes datafiles use nmap.fetchfile directly so the file will be searched in multiple locations instead of only one.
This might be a candidate for inclusion before the release. Currently only rpcinfo.nse uses datafiles.lua and with the patch applied rpcinfo.nse still works fine.
