Gerald Combs f5dff39232 Use xz to compress the source tarball.
Compress the source tarball using xz instead of bzip2. Other open source
projects (including many of our dependencies) have been using xz for a
while so hopefully this won't be too much of a shock.

Remove the patch-bzip2 Autotools target while we're here.

Gerald Combs f966980937 Replace "svn" with "git" all over the place.
Rename "SVNPATH" to "GITBRANCH" since that seems more appropriate.
Rename "svnversion.h" to "version.h" as Evan suggested. Update some
URLs. In make-version.pl, make sure we don't set an improper upstream
branch name. Use the number of commits + short hash from `git describe`
for package names by default.

Gerald Combs 92802883a6 Change the "--enable-setuid-install" option to install dumpcap and TShark
setuid instead of Wireshark.  Remove the "DANGEROUS" notices, but leave it
disabled by default.  Whine if the user runs Wireshark or TShark as root.
Add a preference to disable the whining.  Add a "setuid-root" script that
can be used to switch dumpcap and TShark's setuid-ness on and off for
development and testing.  Update the release notes and README.packaging.

Gerald Combs 89a2966ced Add a "-S" flag to dumpcap, which prints out interface statistics. Use
this in the GUI rather than calling pcap_stats() directly. This gets rid
of the last pcap_open_live() call in the GUI code. Update
README.packaging.
