Add Lua functions so a plugin can introspect field information, such
as the type of field, flags, tvb, etc. Also add a couple of Tvb and
ByteArray methods. And cleanup the TreeItem code a little.

While Lua's built-in pattern support is ok for simple things, many people end
up wanting a real regex engine. Since Wireshark already includes the GLib
Regex library (a wrapper for PCRE), it makes sense to expose that library to
Lua scripts. This has been done using Lrexlib, one of the most popular regex
bindings for Lua. Lrexlib didn't support binding GLib's Regex in particular -
it does for PCRE but GLib is a different API - so I've done that. A fairly
thorough testsuite came along with that, which has been incorporated into the
wireshark wslua testuites as well in this commit.
