a particular type, rather than taking a varargs list, along the lines of
the "proto_tree_add_XXX_format()" routines.
Replace most calls to "proto_tree_add_item()" and
"proto_tree_add_item_hidden()" with calls to those routines.
Rename "proto_tree_add_item()" and "proto_tree_add_item_hidden()" to
"proto_tree_add_item_old()" and "proto_tree_add_item_hidden_old()", and
add new "proto_tree_add_item()" and "proto_tree_add_item_hidden()"
routines that don't take the item to be added as an argument - instead,
they fetch the argument from the packet whose tvbuff was handed to them,
from the offset handed to them.

Add exceptions routines.
Convert proto_tree_add_*() routines to require tvbuff_t* argument.
Convert all dissectors to pass NULL argument ("NullTVB" macro == NULL) as
the tvbuff_t* argument to proto_tree_add_*() routines.
dissect_packet() creates a tvbuff_t, wraps the next dissect call in
a TRY block, will print "Short Frame" on the proto_tree if a BoundsError
exception is caught.
The FDDI dissector is converted to use tvbuff's.

UDP and into the handoff registration routines for the protocols in
question.
Make the dissectors for those protocols static if they're not called
outside the dissector's source file.
Get rid of header files if all they did was declare dissectors that are
now static; remove declarations of now-static dissectors from header
files that do more than just declare the dissector.

dynamically-assigned "ett_" integer values, assigned by
"proto_register_subtree_array()"; this:
obviates the need to update "packet.h" whenever you add a new
subtree type - you only have to add a call to
"proto_register_subtree_array()" to a "register" routine and an
array of pointers to "ett_", if they're not already there, and
add a pointer to the new "ett_" variable to the array, if they
are there;
would allow run-time-loaded dissectors to allocate subtree types
when they're loaded.

bunch of source files.
Replace the "payload" field of a "packet_info" structure with "len" and
"captured_len" fields, which contain the total packet length and total
captured packet length (including all headers) at the current protocol
layer (i.e., if a given layer has a length field, and that length field
says its shorter than the length we got from the capture, reduce the
"pi.len" and "pi.captured_len" values appropriately). Those fields can
be used in the future if we add checks to make sure a field we're
extracting from a packet doesn't go past the end of the packet, or past
the captured part of the packet.
Get rid of the additional payload argument to some dissection functions;
use "pi.captured_len - offset" instead.
Have the END_OF_FRAME macro use "pi.captured_len" rather than
"fd->cap_len", so that "dissect the rest of the frame" becomes "dissect
the rest of the packet", and doesn't dissect end-of-frame padding such
as padding added to make an Ethernet frame 60 or more octets long. (We
might want to rename it END_OF_PACKET; if we ever want to label the
end-of-frame padding for the benefit of people curious what that extra
gunk is, we could have a separate END_OF_FRAME macro that uses
"fd->cap_len".)

file formats. Libpcap is used only for capturing.
