Right now,   the asn1 based dissectors are generated by manually
running the compilation (cat epan/dissectors/packet- x509af.c | grep
asn2eth) command from inside the asn1/protocol directory and then the
autogenerated packet-protocol.[ch] files are manually copied across to
epan/dissectors


it would be nice if there was a makefile in asn1 which would loop over
all subdirectories where asn1 based dissectors are held (asn1/)
and then from inside each directory run a new makefile to
run the commandline to compile the thing into packet-protocol.[ch] and
automatically copy them across to epan/dissector.

It would be great if these subdissectors had proper make dependencies
and also if
changes to asn2eth would trigger them all to be rebuilt.
