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.

Changes of note:
- Removed the 'Copied from' notice, it's only relevant if they're *not* using
the skeleton code. Added a paragraph to README.developer instead.
- Exorcised all references to if (tree) and placed them in their own section
at the bottom as an optimization. Hopefully this will be less confusing.

much easier to edit/maintain that way as well as much easier to copy for a
new dissector. Explicitly don't set the SVN id tag since this is a template.

This patch adds a new public API, proto_tree_add_bitmask_len(), identical to
proto_tree_add_bitmask() but using a caller-supplied length rather than an
inferred one. The underlying proto_item_add_bitmask_tree() code is modified
to display only fields for which all defined bits are available, and to
ignore bits that have no corresponding defined field ("forward compatibility"
cases).
From me: minor edits, see the bug for more details.

use it as example in a few places and point out that if you're not using the
return value to build a subtree, you probably shouldn't be using the function.

Combine the two comments in the Portability section (which largely said the
same thing) on the perils of that function.
Don't suggest it as an option to ensure there are enough bytes in the TVB.

Fixed: { -2, -1, 0, 1, 3} (note gap) used a binary search (which would fail);
Note: { -2, -1, 0, 1, 2 ,3 } (no gap) allowed; will still do a direct access;
Also: Add a comment to README.developer extended value string section.

File name preferences are basically just string preferences except that the
GUI will present a "Browse" button that allows the user to go and find the
file s/he wants (rather than having to blindly type in the full path).

Specificaly:
For a field type FT_BOOLEAN:
- If the bitmask field is zero, then the 'display' field
must be 'BASE_NONE';
- If the bitmask field is non-zero, then the 'display' field
must be the field-width of the parent bit field.

in README.devloper. Remove g_gnuc.h since it's no longer needed. Remove
tvbuff_init(), tvbuff_cleanup(), reassemble_init(), and
reassemble_cleanup() since they were only used for older GLib versions
which didn't support GSlices. Assume we always support the "matches"
operator.
