Add conversation tracking and tshark tap support to ICMPv6. Fixes bug 5810.
TODO: Add a Wireshark tap or look into possibly using the stats tree instead. Also, like ICMP, the ICMPv6 payload appears to carry the sender's timestamp, so it might be possible to make use of this information to estimate the total SRT. (See bug 5770 for more details.) svn path=/trunk/; revision=36561
