Another case where "match_strval()" is being used when it shouldn't be.
The *only* times "match_strval()" should be used are times when
1) it is known that all possible ("possible" as in "are in the range
of the underlying raw data", not "possible" as in "the protocol spec
permits that" - a protocol spec doesn't prevent out-of-spec packets
from being put onto a network, it just indicates that they'e
out-of-spec) values are handled by the value_string table;
2) the code has already determined that the value is one of the ones
in that table;
3) the code explicitly checks whether "match_strval()" returns null
and handles that in such a way that the return value is not
dereferenced.
That wasn't one of those times; I've checked in a fix to make it use
"val_to_str()" instead.
