Hadriel Kaplan 8c2bb80574 Add various functions for Lua directory handling and path info
This adds new functions to get plugins path info, find out if a directory
exists, make a new one, remove one, etc. It also creates a file environment
for user-supplied Lua scripts, to prevent global variable contamination as
well as supply the script-specific file name.  Some other minor cleanup was
done as I found them.

A new testsuite was added to test the existing and new directory functions.

Michael Mann 04d9501306 Add capture file reader/writer support for Lua so scripts can implement new capture file formats.
This enables a Lua script to implement a brand new capture file format reader/writer, so that for example one could write a script to read from vendor-specific "logs" of packets, and show them as normal packets in wireshark.

Hadriel Kaplan c4f1777a97 Adds support for Lua struct library so one can pack/unpack binary structures
This is based on Roberto Ierusalimschy's struct library, along with additional
options based on Flemming Madsen's patch to the lua-users mailing list, and
some changes I made to support 64-bit integer packing/unpacking.  Details
are in the top comments for wslua_struct.c.  This also includes a test script.

Hadriel Kaplan 2e7f771a18 Adds support for Lua Int64 and UInt64 operators, functions, and general
usefulness, working around bug #9162 until Lua 5.3 is released.

The existing Int64 and UInt64 classes provide virtually no
usefullness, other than for creating a string of their value.  While
one could then write Lua code to convert the string to Lua numbers and
such, ultimately Lua has no native 64-bit integer support, making such
a task difficult to handle in Lua.  This change adds a host of
functions and operators to the existing Int64 (gint64) and UInt64
(guint64) classes, to enable true 64-bit integer support on par with
native Lua numbers.

A test script is also provided, which tests the functions/operators.

Jeff Morriss f93348a2f7 As suggested by Moshe Kaplan in https://bugs.wireshark.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=8712 :
When pointing people to the mailing lists, point them directly to the lists
page rather than explaining where to look for the link on the main page (the
directions were several years out of date).

While there also fix up some of the indentation and add a link to the Q&A site
in the developer's guide.

Stig Bjørlykke a2d1e9005d This patch adds support for configuration profiles, which can be used to
configure and use more than one set of preferences and configuration files.

This can be found in the "Configuration Profiles..." menu item from the Edit
menu, or by pressing Shift-Ctrl-A.  It's also possible to start wireshark
and tshark with a named profile by using the "-C ProfileName" option.
A new status pane in the main window will show the current profile.

The configuration files currently stored in the Profiles are:
- Preferences
- Capture Filters
- Display Filters
- Coloring Rules
- Disabled Protocols
- User Accessible Tables

The recent data are by design not added to the profile.

Planned future enhancements:
- make a more convenient function to switch between profiles
- add a "clone profile" button to copy an existing profile
- make the profiles list active and accept return as OK
- save users "Decode as" in the profile
- make new, clone and deletion of profiles more secure
- make some of the recent values available in the profile

This patch also fixes:
- setting default status pane sizes
- a bug setting status pane for packets when not having main lower pane.
