InfiniBand has two packet types, Data packets, and Link Packets. They are
distinguished on the link by the Start character, e.g. SDP or SLP.

When an Endace DAG card is used to capture packets from an Infiniband link, the
start character is not captured. Data packets are captured into
ERF_TYPE_INFINIBAND records, while Link packets are (optionally) captured into
ERF_TYPE_INFINIBAND_LINK records.

This patch adds support for ERF_TYPE_INFINIBAND_LINK records to the ERF
dissector and adds a new dissector for InfiniBand Link packets, which are used
for flow control.
