the next-generation replacement for pcap format being changed to
"pcapng", with no hyphen.

Currently, the Elasticsearch output exports the packet details and,
if -x is specified, the raw hex data.
This change adds the option of exporting the packet summary as well.
The default stays the same (packet details only), but now the existing
-P switch turns on printing of the packet summary. It also turns off
printing packet details, which can be turned back on with -V to print
both, and combined with -x to print all three: summary, details and
raw hex.
The packet summary is especially useful when exploring and visualizing
the data in Kibana, e.g. by displaying the summary "Info" field/column
in a table, as in the Wireshark GUI.

tcpdump just got a --print option, which causes packet information to be
printed even if the raw packets are being saved to a file with -w. We
have -P for the same purpose; make --print another name for it.
While we're at it:
document --help and --version;
just speak of -P/--print as causing printing even of the packet
details, even though -V forces printing with -w, for consistency
with how --print is documented for tcpdump;
fix the description of -h/--help.

pcap provides a pcap_set_tstamp_type function, which can be used to request
hardware timestamps from a supporting kernel.
This patch adds support for aforementioned function as well as two new
command line options to dumpcap, wireshark and tshark:
--list-time-stamp-types
List time stamp types supported for the interface
--time-stamp-type <type>
Change the interface's timestamp method
Name choice mimics those used by tcpdump(1), which already supports this
feature. However, unlike tcpdump, we provide both options unconditionally.
If Wireshark was configured without pcap_set_tstamp_type being available,
--list-time-stamp-types reports an empty list.

Adds the --no-duplicate-keys option to tshark. If -T json is specified,
this option can be specified in order to transform the duplicate keys
produced by -T json into single keys with as value a json array of all
separate values.
Specifying --no-duplicate-keys changes the function which groups node
children that is passed to write_json_proto_tree. Instead of a function
that puts each node in a separate group (proto_node_group_children_by_unique)
a function is passed that groups children that have the same json key
together (proto_node_group_children_by_json_key). This will lead to
some groups having multiple values. Groups with multiple values are
written to the output as a json array. This includes normal json keys
but also keys with the "_raw" and "_tree" suffix.
If --no-duplicate-keys is specified with an option other than "-T json"
or "-T jsonraw" or without -T an error is shown and tshark will exit.
"Export Packet Dissections -> As JSON" in the GUI is hardcoded to use
the duplicated keys format.
Fixes one regression in the output where a filtered json key (-j) with
both a value and children would not have the "_tree" suffix added to the
json key containing the children.
Includes a little code cleanup (removes one instance of code
duplication and simplifies a while loop).
Fixes a memory leak (I thought this fix was already included in the
previous refactor patch but something must have gone wrong when updating
the patch so I'm including it again in this patch).

pile of hacks to begin with and needs cleaning up. For now just having this
feature is a big enough win.

variable (WIRESHARK_DEBUG_USE_SLICES) which turns off the slab allocator and uses
g_slices instead (which can themselves be turned off by setting
G_SLICE=always-malloc).
This makes debugging problems in slab-allocated memory easier to find
(hopefully including https://bugs.wireshark.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=8197 ).
Set WIRESHARK_DEBUG_USE_SLICES when running Valgrind on *shark.
Remove unused structure member: emem_chunk_t.org.

Add that option to tshark, too, and document it.
The option can't be given to Wireshark because the GUI already has a "-g"
(goto packet).

Add a new name resolution option: whether or not use the configured (in the OS)
name resolver (e.g., DNS) to resolve network names. When this option is disabled
but network name resolution is enabled then Wireshark will resolve only those
names that it can from local sources. This includes (at least, AFAIK):
- name resolutions that Wireshark picks up on from DNS packets it decodes
- the "user hosts file" (~/.wireshark/hosts on *NIX)
- what Wireshark reads out of capture file (the PCAPNG name resolution block)
This new preference defaults to "use external resolvers" for backward
compatibility (so people turning on network name resolution will get the old
behavior).
This option can be set via Edit->Preferences and on the command line; there
remain several UIs (e.g., the "open capture file" dialog, the
View->Name Resolution menu, etc.) that don't have the new option yet.
Also expand on the "description" for the name resolution preferences: these
are used not only in the tooltips but are also written to the preferences
file. The previous text didn't include enough context when written do the
preferences file.

prevents OutOfMemory exceptions from being thrown. This makes it easier
to debug such conditions.
Set this variable in test-fuzzed-cap.sh but not in fuzz-test.sh; it's nice
to see the friendly out-of-memory error message in the bug reports the
latter script generates.
