From Bill Meier:

1. Add Preferences:

   a. To allow specification of a hint as to TDS protocol being decoded 
      (Unspecified/TDS4/TDS5/TDS7/TDS8); Default: 'unspecified'

      The 'hint' is used only when needed to do a correct decode.

      If the protocol is unspecified, the decode is as previous.

   b. To allow specification of 'ranges' of TCP ports to be treated as 
      'TDS tcp ports'; i.e. if the source or destination port of a tcp
      connection matches a specified range, then the connection should be
      considered to be TDS.

   c. To allow specification of a hint as to whether TDS being decoded is 
      'little-endian' or 'big-endian'. Default: 'little-endian'.

      A hint is just that; E.G. if TDS7+ packets are encountered the decode
      is always 'little-endian'.

2, Register tcp MS SQL default ports (1433, 2433) as TDS ports
   ('dissector_add'). This also enables TDS as a choice for 'decode as'.

3. 'netlib_check_login_pkt' changed to check 'TDS tcp port' range(s) as 
    entered in preferences;

4. Change 'dissect_tds_query_packet' to handle TDS4 ascii in addition to
   TDS7/8 UCS-16.

5. Change 'dissect_tds_rpc' to:

   a. handle TDS4 ascii RPC in addition to TDS7/8 UCS-16 RPC;
   b. handle Microsoft 'encoded' rpc_name;
   c. fix memory leak (not freeing memory obtained using
      'tvb_fake_unicode');

6. Change 'dissect_tds_response' to:

   a. handle tds4 tokens 'tds_col_name' and 'tds_col_info';
   b. dissect tokens 'tds_doneinproc' and tds 'doneproc' similarly to
      'tds_done'
   c. reclaim memory allocated for 'tds_col' structures when finished 
      processing response
           (Additional memory was being allocated each time a 
            tokenized tds5 response was processed)

7. New function 'dissect_tds_col_info_token' (similar to
   'read_results_tds5') associated with handling TDS4 responses.

8. New functions 'dissect_tds_query5_packet', 'dissect_tds5_lang_token'

9. Rework TDS token size calculation; Some TDS tokens have a length field
   of other than 2 bytes. (e.g.: the length field 
   for TDS_LANG_TOKEN is 4 bytes)

10. Update token definitions and usages;

   a. Update based upon info from current version of FreeTDS 'tds.h' 
      as well as info from Sybase TDS5 document;
      example: TDS_124_TOKEN renamed to TDS_PROCID_TOKEN

   b. TDS_124_TOKEN [TDS_PROCID] was incorrectly not considered 
      a 'fixed-size' token in function 'tds_is_fixed_token'
