  Modified files:
    doc                  dfilter2pod.in proto_tree 
  Log:
  New proto_tree header_field_info stuff. Header_field_infos now contain
  the base for numbers to be displayed in, bitmasks for bitfields, and blurbs
  (which are one or two sentences describing the field).
  
  proto_tree_add*() routines now automatically handle bitfields. You tell
  it which header field you are adding, and just pass it the value of the
  entire field, and the proto_tree routines will do the masking and shifting
  for you.
  
  This means that bitfields are more naturally filtered via dfilter now.
  
  Added Phil Techau's support for signed integers in dfilters/proto_tree.
  
  Added the beginning of the SNA dissector. It's not complete, but I'm
  committing it now because it has example after example of how to use
  bitfields with the new header_field_info struct and proto_tree routines.
  It was the impetus to change how header_field_info works.
