This patch introduces the "-U tap_name[,filter]" tshark option and
is similar to the "Export PDUs as file" option in Wireshark.
Wireshark implements this feature by reopening a capture file, applying
a tap and finally opening the temporary file. Since tshark knows
in advance that a PDU export is needed, it can optimize by not creating
the temporary file and perform the export at the first opportunity.
This patch splits the opening/tapping functionality from error reporting
since tshark does not need a temp file and has no dialogs.
The capture file comment is now specified explicitly as there is no
"current file" anymore if the tap is running without active file.
TODO:
- Review whether it is acceptable to overwrite save_file in tshark.
- Add documentation (tshark manpage).

exp_pdu_file_open() isn't used outside ui/tap_export_pdu.c; make it
static.
do_export_pdu() isn't a tap routine, it's called *from* tap routines, so
its last argument doesn't need to be a generic pointer; its last
argument must be a pointer to an exp_pdu_t, so declare it as such.
Clean up comments while we're at it.

This reverts commit 1abeb277f5.
This isn't building, and looks as if it requires significant work to fix.

Start of refactoring Wiretap and breaking structures down into "generally useful fields for dissection" and "capture specific". Since this in intended as a "base" for Wiretap and Filetap, the "wft" prefix is used for "common" functionality.
The "architectural" changes can be found in cfile.h, wtap.h, wtap-int.h and (new file) wftap-int.h. Most of the other (painstaking) changes were really just the result of compiling those new architecture changes.
