Inspired by looking into
https://ask.wireshark.org/question/8009/wireshark-ring-buffer-settings-from-command-line/
... in which the user was confused because a duration set on the command
line was not reflected in the GUI. That's because
I0180c43843f5d2f0c2f50153c9ce42ac7fa5aeae added the `interval` ring-buffer
option and made the GUI use this rather than `duration`. This was not at all
clear in the GUI, though.
Since `duration` and `interval` have quite different use cases, expose both in
the GUI.
Try to clean up and unify the tooltips at the same time. I'm not entirely
convinced the tooltips need to be on the checkbox, the spinbox, and the
combobox but leave it that way for now.
Add some to the man page description of the interval option to hopefully make
it clearer what the option does.

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.

When generating a capture file from a text file it can be helpfull
to be able to set the capture interface name in the generated IDB.
This can be especially true if later on the generated captures are
merged and the individual IDB's have to be compared. Without a name
every IDB of the same datalink type will be equal and subject to
merge. Also it keeps the individual streams identifiable for the
end user.

format and default towards the build configuration.
This has to be reflected in their help output also.
2) Various documentation files are still stating that PCAP is
the default format of various tools. With the default build
configuration being PCAPNG these have to be adjusted as well.
(with lack of dynamic content the documentation can only refer
to the default build configuration format).
