Currently, this is only used to determine whether a protocol tree needs
to be built on the first pass or not - if there are postdissectors that
need fields, it does - but eventually we should be able to use it to
prime the dissection to deliver those fields in cases where we don't
need the *entire* protocol tree (rather than using a hack such as
cooking up a fake tap with a fake filter to do that).
Update MATE and TRANSUM to use it.
Clean up code to check whether we need a protocol tree, and add comments
before that code indicating, in each case, what the criteria are.
The array of postdissectors includes a length, so we don't need to
separately keep track of the number of postdissectors.
Clean up indentation while we're at it.

That way, nothing using libwireshark needs to know what settings need to
be loaded, they just call epan_load_settings().

It doesn't belong in libwireshark, as it doesn't affect dissection, but
it *does* belong in libui, as it's helper code for the UIs.

It's identical in the GTK+ and Qt UIs, and it should just be done in
libwireshark.
Rename some routines to just speak of enabled_and_disabled_lists, so we
don't have to say enabled_and_disabled_protos_and_heuristic_dissectors
or something such as that.
Clean up indentation.

Add a "report a warning message" routine to the "report_err" code in
libwsutil, and rename files and routines appropriately, as they don't
only handle errors any more.
Have a routine read_enabled_and_disabled_protos() that reads all the
files that enable or disable protocols or heuristic dissectors, enables
and disables them based on the contents of those files, and reports
errors itself (as warnings) using the new "report a warning message"
routine. Fix that error reporting to report separately on the disabled
protocols, enabled protocols, and heuristic dissectors files.
Have a routine to set up the enabled and disabled protocols and
heuristic dissectors from the command-line arguments, so it's done the
same way in all programs.
If we try to enable or disable an unknown heuristic dissector via a
command-line argument, report an error.
Update a bunch of comments.
Update the name of disabled_protos_cleanup(), as it cleans up
information for disabled *and* enabled protocols and for heuristic
dissectors.
Support the command-line flags to enable and disable protocols and
heuristic dissectors in tfshark.

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?
