Guy Harris c8c2bab1b9 Add a routine that indicates where there are any tap listeners
registered (not whether there are any tap *filters* registered).

Do dissection in Tethereal iff:

	we're printing information about each packet;

	we're using a read filter on the packets;

	there are any tap listeners registered (even if there are no tap
	filters registered - not all taps use filters).

Guy Harris 15af0f656f From Lars Roland: add support for building a libethereal.dll with MSVC:
add a config.nmake option to control whether to build
	libethereal.dll or not;

	remove "./wiretap" from PATH to prevent problems due to
	wrongly-loaded files;

	build dissector.lib with MSVC;

	move "print.c" and "ps.c" to the dissector helpers, as "print.c"
	imports variables from packet-frame.c and packet-data.c, which
	are in libethereal;

	move "g711.c" out of the dissector helpers, as they're used only
	by Ethereal in a tap, not in Tethereal or in any dissector;

	add a .def file for libethereal;

	arrange to declare global variables exported from libethereal
	with "__declspec(dllimport)" when building programs that import
	those variables;

	update the NSIS installer.

Make the "configure" script define ETH_VAR_IMPORT as "extern".

Guy Harris 1b872b3648 Make "register_tap_listener()" return NULL on success and a "GString *"
referring to a GString containing an error message on failure, and don't
have it print anything on failure.

If it fails, have its Tethereal-tap callers print an error message
before exiting, and have its Ethereal callers pop up a dialog box with
the error (except in cases where the failure is guaranteed not to be the
user's fault, and where we exit, in which case we just print an error
message before we exit).  In all cases, the error message includes the
text of the GString.

Fix a scanf format string in the DCE RPC statistics Ethereal tap, so
that it properly skips the comma before the filter string.

Fix some Ethereal error messages not to say "tethereal".

Guy Harris e2c1862af7 Declare functions as extern, as some of them are part of the plugin ABI,
and compilation fails on Windows if they're not declared as externs.

Guy Harris 8442ad9a32 From Ronnie Sahlberg: have a registration interface for tap listeners,
and generate the table of stuff to register from tap source files, so
Tethereal doesn't need to know what tap listeners exist.

Get rid of "tap-xxx.h" files, as they're now empty.

Add "tethereal-tap-register.c" to the .cvsignore file, as it's a new
generated file.

Update "Makefile.nmake" to generate "tethereal-tap-register.c".

Clean up "Makefile.am" and "Makefile.nmake" a bit.

Guy Harris 79308de612 From Ronnie Sahlberg: don't have the tap code do a dissection, leave
that up to its callers, so only one dissection need be done when reading
a capture file.

Ronnie Sahlberg 93a649db6f Tap api. tap is a simple api that can be used for arbitrary extensions.
One example extension is rpcstat.

Try -Z rpc,rtt,100003,3 as argument to tethereal when reading a capture
containing NFSv3 packets.

tap-rpcstat.[ch] is intended to demonstrate the api and can be used to
base other extensions on.
