checks for the inability to save comments that we do for UN*X. This
should fix bug 7222, although the UI isn't currently as nice, as the
dialog boxes are Windows dialog boxes and we don't set the button labels
to reflect the actual choices being offered to the user. (We may be
able to do that by using template resources to construct the message
boxes.)

that file type and FALSE otherwise. Use it where appropriate.

saving files, and run it modal (which we're already doing with the
GtkFileChooserDialog); this means less callback-based state machine

save" if the destination file exists.
Don't forbid overwriting an existing file in either of those cases (we
still forbid overwriting the current capture file) - the GUI asks the
user whether they want to do the overwrite, and allows them to cancel
out of it - and don't remove the file before writing to it (doing so
makes the save *un*safe).
Attempt to do a save of an unedited temporary file by just moving the
file on Windows as well as on UN*X - ws_rename() will remove the target
if necessary on Windows (and won't do it as a separate operation before
attempting the rename), so it behaves like ws_rename() on UN*X (which is
just a wrapper around rename()).

the default extension for the file type iff
the file type we're using has a list of extensions;
the file has no extension or it has one but it's not one of the
ones in the list.
*Don't* expect a file extension to be at most 5 characters plus the dot
- the extension for pcap-ng, our default capture file type, is "pcapng",
and that's 6 characters!

make Save-As/Displayed/All-Packets save not only the displayed packets but
also any other packets needed (e.g., for reassembly) to fully dissect the
displayed packets.
This works only for the "All packets" case; choosing only the Selected packet,
the Marked packets, or a range of packets would require actually storing which
packets depend on which (too much memory) or going through the packet list many
times (too slow). Also, this behavior is always the case: you can't save the
displayed packets without their dependencies (I don't see why this would be
desirable).
So far this is done for SCTP and things using the reassembly routines (TCP has
been tested).
The Win32 dialog was modified but hasn't been tested yet.
One confusing aspect of the UI is that the Displayed count in the Save-As
dialog does not match the number of displayed packets. (I tried renaming the
button "Displayed + Dependencies" but it looked too big.) The tooltip tries
to explain this and the fact that this works only in the All-Packets case;
suggestions for improvement are welcome.
Implementation details:
Dissectors (or the reassembly code) can list frames which were needed to
build the current frame's tree. If the current frame passes the display
filter then each listed frame is marked as "depended upon" (this takes up the
last free frame_data flag).
When performing a Save-As/Displayed/All-Packets then choose packets which
passed the dfilter _or_ are depended upon.

*without* a leading "." (i.e., just the extension, not the "."
that separates it from the rest of the file name), which is NULL
if there are no known extensions;

extensions, without "*." or ".", which is NULL if there are no

wtap_file_type_string().)
If wtap_get_file_extensions_list() returns NULL, include the file type
in the list of filters, and use "*.*" as the filter. That way the list
of filters will include all file types, even if you can't really ask
only for files of that type (actually, you can't really ask only for
files of *any* type unless you're running under a desktop environment
where file types are specified by, for example, looking for magic
numbers, as there's no guarantee that, for example, a pcap file will
have an extension at all, given that it might come from a command-line
tool that doesn't default to any extension).
