I've checked in a change to make REPORT_DISSECTOR_BUG() call abort() if
the ETHEREAL_ABORT_ON_DISSECTOR_BUG environment variable is set.

The idea is that if you're trying to find out why the dissector bug is
occurring, it might be easier if you can get a stack trace of the
REPORT_DISSECTOR_BUG() call (or the DISSECTOR_ASSERT() or
DISSECTOR_ASSERT_NOT_REACHED() call).

We might want to set that environment variable when doing the
fuzz/randpkt/etc. checks in the buildbot.
