This allows taps that can fail to report an error and fail; a failed
tap's packet routine won't be called again, so they don't have to keep
track of whether they've failed themselves.
We make the return value from the packet routine an enum.
Don't have a separate type for the per-packet routine for "follow" taps;
they're expected to act like tap packet routines, so just use the type
for tap packet routines.
One tap packet routine returned -1; that's not a valid return value, and
wasn't one before this change (the return value was a boolean), so
presume the intent was "don't redraw".
Another tap routine's early return, without doing any work, returned
TRUE; this is presumably an error (no work done, no need to redraw), so
presumably it should be "don't redraw".
Clean up some white space while we're at it.

The current API for Lua provides a global function
"all_field_infos()" which returns all the populated field_info nodes
in the current proto_tree.
By default all_field_infos() "works", in the literal sense: it returns
exactly the fields the previous dissectors of the packet have
populated at that instant of time. But of course dissectors don't
populate all the applicable fields most of the time, because of the
TRY_TO_FAKE_THIS_ITEM optimization where they don't fill in things
that aren't needed at the time by a display, color, or tap's dfilter.
So this commit offers a way to force the dissectors to populate
all the applicable field_infos in the tree, by setting the proto_tree
to be visible. Obviously that is going to impact performance, since
it basically bypasses the TRY_TO_FAKE_THIS_ITEM optimization; so the
patch only does this if the Lua script author told it to explicitly,
by adding an argument to Listener.new() and register_postdissector().

Over time the various wslua classes/functions have gotten moldy, with different
ways of doing similar things. Some of it can't be changed without breaking
backwards compatibility for Lua scripts, so I didn't do that. But I did what
I could. The biggest change is a refactoring of how accessors/attributes
are handled in the code, so that most of them work the same way using the
same code.
Specific changes made:
* Added null/expired checking macro to class declarations for many classes
* Removed extraneous pointer/expired checking, since checkFoo() does that already
* Fixed "errors" reported by clang static analyzer; they were false positives, but it was easier to get it to stop complaining by changing the code
* Moved internal wslua functions from wslua_utils.c into a new 'wslua_internals.c' file
* Changed Listener/NSTime/Pinfo/Proto to use a common setter/getter accessor/attribute code model, instead of each of them doing their own
* Fixed some API doc mistakes, mostly around attributes that were documented as read-only but were actually read-write

This also means that there's no need for a tap to have a fake filter
to ensure that the protocol tree will be built, so don't set up a fake
"frame" filter.
While we're at it, clean up some cases where "no filter" was represented

Fix for https://bugs.wireshark.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=2453
The patch fixes the problem by extending the original "outstanding stuff"
approach.
Now the pointer itself won't be NULLified, instead we track the pointers with
their expiry state in structs in the outstanding_stuff list.
The Lua objects refers to those structs instead of the actual pointers and
checks the expiry state of the pointers before accessing them.
The pointers are marked expired when the dissection of the frame is finished
and the allocated struct is freed by Lua's garbage collector.
If the garbage collector hits the struct when it holds a not expired pointer,
it marks it as expired (that means we don't have any object in Lua referring to
the pointer) and the struct will be freed at the end of the dissection of the
frame.
this is for the 1.0 branch
