This patch introduces the frame.interface_description field.
While testing this new functionality it became obvious that we have
a non-optimal interaction between the existing cfile.c's
cap_file_get_interface_name(), the recently added frame.interface_name
field and this new frame.interface_description field.
The string returned from cap_file_get_interface_name() may in fact
come from one of three different sources: the idb's interface name
(if it exists) or the idb's interface description (if that exists)
or a default text of "unknown". The string ultimately becomes the
rame.interface_name whether or not the idb had an interface name
option to begin with. This behavior does not allow one to test for
the simple presence of frame.interface_name. The new peer function
cap_file_get_interface_description() added by this patch returns
NULL instead of "unknown" if the idb does not have an interface
description. Should cap_file_get_interface_name() be similarly
modified to return NULL if the idb does not have an interface name?

We save a list of dissectors that are disabled through the Enabled Protocols
dialog. This is because we assume dissectors are enabled by default.
For dissectors that are disabled by default, we have no way to keep them
enabled through the Enabled Protocols dialog. A dissector that defaults
to being disabled has to be reset to enabled each time Wireshark is launched.
Add a list similar to the disabled list for enabling dissectors that are
disabled by default.
This mostly applies to post-dissectors.

Make the init_progfile_dir() call unconditionally, even if plugins
aren't supported, as that doesn't necessarily mean nobody uses the
directory containing the executable.
Report the error the same way in all programs, and free the error string
after we're finished with it.
Make the error - and the comment before the code - reflect what
init_progfile_dir() is actually doing (the goal is to get the full
pathname of the directory *containing* the executable; that's generally
done by getting the pathname of the executable and stripping off the
name of the executable, but that's won't necessarily always be the
case). Also note for TShark that we won't be able to capture traffic,
just as we do for Wireshark (if we don't have the pathname of the
program file, we don't have a pathname to use to find dumpcap).
Have the plugin scanner just fail silently if we weren't able to get the
plugin directory path, so we don't have to worry about calling it if
init_progfile_dir() fails.
Clean up white space while we're at it.

In commit v2.3.0rc0-117-g485bc45 (backported to v2.2.0rc0-44-g66721ca),
extcap_prefs_dynamic_vals and extcap_cleanup were added in an attempt to
address dangling pointers.
Unfortunately it is not sufficient:
- A pointer to the preference value is stored in extcap_arg and passed
to the prefs API, but this extcap_arg structure can become invalid
which result in use-after-free whenever the preference is accessed.
- On exit, a use-after-free occurs in prefs_cleanup when the preference
value is being checked.
As the preference subsystem actually manages the memory for the string
value and consumers should only provide a pointer where the value can be
stored, convert the char* field in extcap to char**. This has as
additional benefit that values are not limited to 256 bytes anymore.
extcap_cleanup is moved after epan_cleanup to ensure that prefs_cleanup
does not operate on dangling pointers.
Crash is reproducible under ASAN with: tshark -i randpkt
