Description
derive capa rules from the yara rules here: https://github.com/Yara-Rules/rules/blob/master/capabilities/capabilities.yar
there'll be some overlap with what capa already has today. and it will require some parsing of the yara rule. but it may be a quick way to incorporate some important capabilities/techniques.
