Start of refactoring Wiretap and breaking structures down into "generally useful fields for dissection" and "capture specific". Since this in intended as a "base" for Wiretap and Filetap, the "wft" prefix is used for "common" functionality.
The "architectural" changes can be found in cfile.h, wtap.h, wtap-int.h and (new file) wftap-int.h. Most of the other (painstaking) changes were really just the result of compiling those new architecture changes.

This adds new functions to get plugins path info, find out if a directory
exists, make a new one, remove one, etc. It also creates a file environment
for user-supplied Lua scripts, to prevent global variable contamination as
well as supply the script-specific file name. Some other minor cleanup was
done as I found them.
A new testsuite was added to test the existing and new directory functions.

This enhances the Lua API doc generator Perl script to handle
meta-information in description comments, such as bold, italics,
raw code, version info, etc.
The supported markup and codes are documented in make-wsluarm.pl.
It's not beautiful Perl code (I don't know Perl), and I'd rather
do it using Lua, but I think keeping it Perl makes more sense in
the long run.

Lua can create a file reader/writer, to open new capture file
formats or write to new ones. To save local state, it can save
things in Lua itself; but since there can be multiple open files
at the same time (for example during a reload), the Lua script
won't know for which file and state its read/write functions are
being invoked for. To remedy this, and also provide a convenient
way to store such state, this commit adds the ability for a Lua
script to store a Lua table in the wtap/wtap_dumper's priv
data member, just like C-code-based reader/writers do.

There's a relatively new feature in 1.11.3 to select a specific file format
reader, instead of relying on magics or heuristics. If you select a file
reader and open a file, open it, and then click the reload-file button or go
to View->Reload or press the ctrl-R keymap, the file is reloaded but using the
magic/heuristics again instead of the file format reader you previously chose.
Likewise, the Lua relaod() function has the same issue (which is how I found
this problem).
I have tested this change by hand, using a Lua script, but I didn't add it
to the testsuite because I need another change for my test script to work
correctly. (an enhancement rather than a bug fix, which I'll submit separately)

This enables a Lua script to implement a brand new capture file format reader/writer, so that for example one could write a script to read from vendor-specific "logs" of packets, and show them as normal packets in wireshark.
