Have Ethereal check for a first command-line argument of "-G", rather
than a command name of "ethereal-dump-fields", to decide whether to run
as normal Ethereal or to just dump out the list of fields that can be
used in a display filter.
This allows us to continue to make that check without doing the regular
command line flag parsing (which we don't want to do, as we don't want
to call "gtk_init()" before making that check, as "gtk_init()" tries to
open an X display, and some people want not to have to have X running in
order to build Ethereal, or want not to have Ethereal try to open an X
connection over a slow line if it's just going to print field names to
the standard output), without having to make a link to "../ethereal"
from the "doc" directory (said link couldn't be a hard link, as ATK
apparently disallows hard links between directories, and I have the
vague impression that a symbolic link might cause other problems).
