Display of reserved octet in 6lowpan IPHC header
The 6lowpan standard specifies a reserved octet in the extended header
of an IP_PROTO_FRAGMENT packet in the same place used for the header
length for other extension headers.
The current version of the 6lowpan dissector displays the reserved octet
and the rest of the header (6 more bytes) together as data, as opposed to
displaying the reserved octet by itself and then the data (using the
data dissector).
This patch does not change the functionality of the dissector in any
way, only how the 7 bytes are displayed. Instead of displaying the
header information and then 7 bytes of data, it displays the reserved
octet and then the data. This is also consistent with the way the ipv6
dissector displays it (showing the reserved octet and its value).
For this purpose, there is a new hf (hf_6lowpan_nhc_ext_reserved) and
the corresponding proto_tree calls. Also, depending on the type of
extension header, the octets sent to the general data dissector are
shifted by one.
