it serves the same purpose as the register routine in a built-in
dissector, and don't require all dissectors to have one, as they might
just be taps.
Get rid of the stats tree's init routine, as it's just a tap, and as it
doesn't do anything.
Update the idl2eth Python script to generate plugins with register routines.

Introduce a new init routine for plugins,
which does not take the plugin api table as an
argument and allows etheral to distinguish
between plugins using the old and the new api.
Update README.plugins accordingly
Change all g_warnings() in epan/plugins.c to report_failue().
On windows we do not have a log console open while
loading the plugins, because a log console cannot be opened before the prefs have been read. Thus g_warnings()
does not work for reporting problems with plugins.

files. Do this with GENERATED_HEADER_FILES, GENERATED_C_FILES, and
GENERATED_FILES macros in Makefile.common files, along the lines of what
wiretap/Makefile.common has.
Clean up "*~" files with "make clean" rather than only "make distclean"
in some additional places.
Add "maintainer-clean" rules to the Makefile.nmake files, paralelling
the ones in the automake-generated Makefile.in files, using the
GENERATED_FILES macros from Makefile.common files. In some cases, move
the cleanup of files from "make distclean" to "make maintainer-clean",
and in other cases, put in a comment indicating why we're not doing that
(because some files that are distributed in the source tarballs, namely
Flex output, were built with a UN*X Flex and won't compile on Windows,
so we get rid of them with "make distclean" so you can clean up stuff
that *has* to be re-generated for Windows).
Clean up some *CLEANFILES definitions - get rid of ones that no longer
apply as files were moved or that add to the definition a name that's
already there.
