Win.Trojan.RedLeaves variant

Hi,

Below signature attempts to detect a variant of RedLeaves. Pcap is available. There are subtle differences between the 
HTTP request in the pcap and its details in the research. The signature attempts to accommodate both. The HTTP body can 
be expressedin pcre, but either would lose detection of almost half the requests, or the pcre becomes unnecessary, I 
guess.
