It's actually part of the named pipe transaction protocol, so I moved
the code to handle it into the SMB pipe dissector; it also dissects the
function code in the pipe transaction, if present (that's what that 0x26
is - it's CallNmPipe).

The FID is passed as an argument to the code to handle MSRPC-over-SMB.

It's also passed to a routine now exported by "packet-smb.c", called
"add_fid()", which adds a FID to the protocol tree as an "smb.fid"
field, and also adds it to the Info column.
