    wiretap: add a routine to add a "fake" IDB.
    
    It generates a fake IDB for files that don't have interface information
    and that have a per-file encapsulation type, snapshot length, and time
    stamp precision, and adds it to the file's list of IDBs.
    
    Use it for libpcap.
    
    We will use it later for other file formats, so that code such as the
    mergecap code to merge into a pcapng file can handle input files that
    don't have interface information.
    
    (We should have a way to indicate whether the IDBs are real or fake, so
    that capinfos and Statistics > Capture File Properties don't report
    meaningless IDB information and make it look as if it's known that the
    capture was done on one interface with the properties in question.)
