- rename tvb_length and similar to tvb_captured_length and similar; leave
#defines in place for backwards-compat, but mark them clearly as deprecated in
code comments and in checkAPI
- remove tvb_get_string as C code and just leave a #define in place for
backwards-compat; mark it clearly as deprecated in code comment and checkAPI
- update READMEs and sample dissector for all of the above
- while in the neighbourhood, make checkAPI skip (and warn) for missing files
instead of bailing on the whole check, so subsequent files still get checked

As discussed in bug 3513 and 9709, one can register more than one new ProtoFields for
the same field name. Of course C-code can do that too, and does a LOT apparently, but
if they're not similar ftypes then things can get scrweed up in display filters.
So this change prevents duplicate field registration of dissimilar ftypes. The
similarity is based on the discussion on the mailing list, and the listing in
README.developer has been updated to refelect that as well.
Also, this change adds a testscript for Proto/ProtoFields.

The majority of the fixes are for calls to uat_new(). Instead of
having each caller cast its private data to (void**), we use void*
in the uat_new() API itself. Inside uat_new(), we cast the void*
to void**.
Some dissectors use val64_string arrays, so a VALS64() macro was
added for those, to avoid using VALS(), which is useful only for
value_string arrays.
packet-mq.c was changed because dissect_nt_sid() requires
a char**, not a guint**. All other callers of dissect_nt_sid() use
char*'s (and take the address of it) for their local storage. So,
this was changed to follow the other practices.
A confusion between gint and absolute_time_display_e in packet-time.c
was cleared up.
The ugliest fix is the addition of ip6_guint8_to_str(), for exactly
one caller. The caller uses one type of ip6 address byte array,
while ip6_to_str() expects another. This new function is in place
until the various address implementations can be consolidated.
Add VALS64() to the developer documentation.

Update the README to reflect the value_string name changes in r48645.
From me: reorganize a bit to promote the use of val_to_str over try_val_to_str
in most cases.

documentation specific to dissectors should now live in README.dissector - what
remains in README.developer should be useful to anybody coding on Wireshark
regardless of if you're working on the GUI, wiretap, dissectors, etc.
This first pass I did a fairly dumb split of copy-pasting relevant chunks from
one file to the other. There are probably fragments that aren't in the right
file anymore, so cleanup welcome.
