into epan/ftypes.
Re-write display filter routines using Lemon parser instead of yacc.
Besides using a different tool, the new grammar is much simpler, while
the display filter engine itself is more powerful and more easily extended.
Add dftest executable, to test display filter "bytecode" generation.
Add option to "configure" to build dftest or randpkt, both of which are not
built by default.
Implement Ed Warnicke's ideas about dranges in the new display filter and
ftype code.
Remove type FT_TEXT_ONLY in favor of FT_NONE, and have protocols registered
as FT_PROTOCOL. Thus, FT_NONE is used only for simple labels in the proto tree,
while FT_PROTOCOL is used for protocols. This was necessary for being
able to make byte slices (ranges) out of protocols, like "frame[0:3]"
Win32 Makefile.nmake's will be added tonight.

be loaded and their initialization routines called in right after we
call the initialization routines for built-in dissectors, but don't call
their handoff registration routines yet, and then call the handoff
registration routines right after calling the handoff registration
routines for built-in dissectors.
Do all that in "proto_init()", rather than "epan_init()".
That way, we call all dissector registration routines together, and then
call all dissector handoff registration routines together; all the
registration routines are called before any handoff registration
routines, as is required, and, as "proto_init()" is called by
"epan_init()" before "dfilter_init()" is called, all filterable fields
have been registered before "dfilter_init()" is called, and no plugins
have to call "dfilter_init()" themselves to get their fields registered.
Remove pointers to "dfilter_init()" and "dfilter_cleanup()" from the
plugin address table, as plugins shouldn't be calling them any more, and
remove calls to them from plugins.

protocols, in addition to adding structures to the list of filterable
fields. Give it an extra argument that specifies a "short name" for the
protocol, for use in such places as
pinfo->current_proto;
the dialog box for constructing filters;
the preferences tab for the protocol;
and so on (although we're not yet using it in all those places).
Make the preference name that appears in the preferences file and the
command line for the DIAMETER protocol "diameter", not "Diameter"; the
convention is that the name in question be all-lower-case.
Make some routines and variables that aren't exported static.
Update a comment in the ICP dissector to make it clear that the
dissector won't see fragments other than the first fragment of a
fragmented datagram.

string formatter, like "format_text()", and, as "tvbuff.c" now calls it
(*vide infra*), we don't want to have to make "tvbuff.c" drag "packet.h"
in just to declare "bytes_to_str()". It's now declared in "strutil.h",
so include it in modules that use "bytes_to_str()" and weren't already
including it.
Add a "tvb_bytes_to_str()" wrapper that calls "tvb_get_ptr()" to get a
pointer to a chunk of N bytes at a given offset in a tvbuff and then
hands that chunk to "bytes_to_str()". Convert the code that was doing
that to use "tvb_bytes_to_str()" instead (which caught what I suspect is
a bug in the Q.2931 dissector, where it was handing an offset of 0 to
"tvb_get_ptr()" - a cut-and-pasteo, I think).
Tvbuffify the ARP dissector.
