I'm not sold on the name or module the proto_data functions live in, but I believe the function arguments are solid and gives us the most flexibility for the future. And search/replace of a function name is easy enough to do.
The big driving force for getting this in sooner rather than later is the saved memory on ethernet packets (and IP packets soon), that used to have file_scope() proto data when all it needed was packet_scope() data (technically packet_info->pool scoped), strictly for Decode As.
All dissectors that use p_add_proto_data() only for Decode As functionality have been converted to using packet_scope(). All other dissectors were converted to using file_scope() which was the original scope for "proto" data.

Also (for a few files):
- create/use some extended value strings;
- remove unneeded #include files;
- remove unneeded variable initialization;
- re-order fcns slightly so prefs_reg_handoff...() at end, etc

The attached patches fix the following issues:
1. CIP-Motion shouldn't be a heuristic dissector. CIP-Motion packets are
determined by specific fields in a CIP ForwardOpen. I ran into situations
where CIP-Motion's "vague" heuristics incorrectly dissected packets meant for
CIP-Safety. Of course this requires the ForwardOpen to be in the trace, but it
is the most deterministic way to have CIP-Motion packets.
2. Minor bugfix to the CIP-Safety dissector. A couple of fields were
"missing", causing errant malformed packets.
