used to clean up after a failed pcap_activate() call. Convert the
existing close_op routines to cleanup_op routines, and use them to clean
up; rename pcap_close_common() to pcap_cleanup_live_common(), and use it
directly if there's no platform-dependent cleanup needed. That means we
don't have to write the same cleanup code twice (and possibly forget
stuff in the version done on a failed pcap_activate() call).
Have the cleanup routines do whatever is necessary to indicate that
cleanup has been done, and not do any particular cleaning up if it's
already been done (i.e., don't free something if the pointer to it is
null and null out the pointer once it's been freed, don't close an FD if
it's -1 and set it to -1 once it's been closed, etc.).
For device types/platforms where we don't support monitor mode, check
for it and return PCAP_ERROR_RFMON_NOTSUP - but do so after we've
checked whether we can open the device, so we return "no such device" or
"permission denied" rather than "that device doesn't support monitor
mode" if we can't open the device in the first place.

Clean up if memory buffer allocation fails on Linux.
handle" routine, an 'activate a pcap_t handle" routine, and some "set
the properties of the pcap_t handle" routines, so that, for example, the
buffer size can be set on a BPF device before the device is bound to an
interface.
Add additional routines to set monitor mode, and make at least an
initial attempt at supporting that on Linux, *BSD, and Mac OS X 10.4 and
10.5. (Very much "initial" for Linux, which is a twisty little maze of
wireless drivers, many different.)
Have a "timeout" member of the pcap_md structure on all platforms, use
that on Windows instead of the "timeout" member of the pcap_t structure,
and get rid of the "timeout" member of that structure.
Fix the copyright notice.
Use the new DLT_BLUETOOTH_HCI_H4_WITH_PHDR DLT, and add a

Now that we have a direction indication, support
pcap_setdirection().
Update FILES and INSTALL.txt appropriately, and fix some problems in
INSTALL.txt.

add a new DLT_ value and use that.

Clean up error messages a bit, including indications that these are from
