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.

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

Similar to bug 9725 and ProtoField.new(), the way the VALUESTRING argument is being checked
in the code for ProtoField.bool() ends up making it non-optional. This patch fixes that,
along with some minor API documentation fixes (text).

Using ProtoField.new() is dicey. Many of the optional arguments don't properly check the lua stack - they call lua_isnil() for their index number, instead of lua_gettop() to see the stack size. lua_isnil() may return false in such cases.

- Allow both string and integer for type and base (improve usability).
- Check valid base and mask for different types (avoid crashes).
- Remove ftypes.PROTOCOL from valid types.
This should fix bug #9549.

When a new Field is created, does as following:
* Check whether that field is registered, by using `proto_registrar_get_byname`. This is current behavior.
* (patched) If not registered, check whether that field is defined in LUA and will be registered. This is performed in `wslua_is_field_available` accessing LUA context.
* If not, an error "a field with this name must exist" occurs.

registered port numbers in PROTO.prefs_changed.
Now we only need this code in Lua plugins having port numbers prefs:
PROTO.prefs.ports = Pref.range ("Ports", 0, "Port numbers", 65535)
PROTO.prefs_changed()
local udp_table = DissectorTable.get ("udp.port")
udp_table:set (PROTO.prefs.ports, PROTO)
end

when the preferences for the dissector are changed.
This is not a 100% correct implementation at the time because the
prefs_changed function in all Lua plugins will be called whenever
a preference in a single Lua plugin is changed.

Lua cannot store a 64 bit integer with full precision, which is used
for keys in tables, so this is not a 100% solution. But it will probably
be good enough for value strings, and it is better to have some support
than no support.

epan/show_exception.c, as it's used outside
epan/dissectors/packet-frame.c. Update their callers to include
<epan/show_exception.h> to get their declaration.
Add a CATCH_NONFATAL_ERRORS macro that catches all exceptions that, if
there's more stuff in the packet to dissect after the dissector call
that threw the exception, doesn't mean you shouldn't go ahead and
dissect that stuff. Use it in all those cases, including ones where
BoundsError was inappropriately being caught (you want those passed up
to the top level, so that the packet is reported as having been cut
short in the capture process).
Add a CATCH_BOUNDS_ERRORS macro that catches all exceptions that
correspond to running past the end of the data for a tvbuff; use it
rather than explicitly catching those exceptions individually, and
rather than just catching all exceptions (the only place that
DissectorError should be caught, for example, is at the top level, so
dissector bugs show up in the protocol tree).
Don't catch and then immediately rethrow exceptions without doing
anything else; just let the exceptions go up to the final catcher.
Use show_exception() to report non-fatal errors, rather than doing it
yourself.
If a dissector is called from Lua, catch all non-fatal errors and use
show_exception() to report them rather than catching only
ReportedBoundsError and adding a proto_malformed item.
Don't catch exceptions when constructing a trailer tvbuff in
packet-ieee8023.c - just construct it after the payload has been
dissected, and let whatever exceptions that throws be handled at the top
level.
Avoid some TRY/CATCH/ENDTRY cases by using checks such as
tvb_bytes_exist() before even looking in the tvbuff.

Change some data types to avoid those implicit conversion warnings.
When assigning a constant to a float, make sure the constant isn't a
double, by appending "f" to the constant.
Constify a bunch of variables, parameters, and return values to
eliminate warnings due to strings being given const qualifiers. Cast
away those warnings in some cases where an API we don't control forces
us to do so.
Enable a bunch of additional warnings by default. Note why at least
some of the other warnings aren't enabled.
randpkt.c and text2pcap.c are used to build programs, so they don't need
to be in EXTRA_DIST.
If the user specifies --enable-warnings-as-errors, add -Werror *even if
the user specified --enable-extra-gcc-flags; assume they know what
they're doing and are willing to have the compile fail due to the extra
GCC warnings being treated as errors.
