I'm not sold on the name or module the proto_data functions live in, but I believe the function arguments are solid and gives us the most flexibility for the future. And search/replace of a function name is easy enough to do.
The big driving force for getting this in sooner rather than later is the saved memory on ethernet packets (and IP packets soon), that used to have file_scope() proto data when all it needed was packet_scope() data (technically packet_info->pool scoped), strictly for Decode As.
All dissectors that use p_add_proto_data() only for Decode As functionality have been converted to using packet_scope(). All other dissectors were converted to using file_scope() which was the original scope for "proto" data.

Cast away some implicit 64-bit-to-32-bit conversion errors due to use of
sizeof.
Cast away some implicit 64-bit-to-32-bit conversion errors due to use of
strtol() and strtoul().
Change some data types to avoid those implicit conversion warnings.
When assigning a constant to a float, make sure the constant isn't a
double, by appending "f" to the constant.
Constify a bunch of variables, parameters, and return values to
eliminate warnings due to strings being given const qualifiers. Cast
away those warnings in some cases where an API we don't control forces
us to do so.
Enable a bunch of additional warnings by default. Note why at least
some of the other warnings aren't enabled.
randpkt.c and text2pcap.c are used to build programs, so they don't need
to be in EXTRA_DIST.
If the user specifies --enable-warnings-as-errors, add -Werror *even if
the user specified --enable-extra-gcc-flags; assume they know what
they're doing and are willing to have the compile fail due to the extra
GCC warnings being treated as errors.
