dfilter: add range support to set membership operator ("f in {x .. y}")
Allow "tcp.srcport in {1662 1663 1664}" to be abbreviated to
"tcp.srcport in {1662 .. 1664}". The range operator is supported for any
field value which supports the "<=" and "=>" operators and thus works
for integers, IP addresses, etc.
The naive mapping "tcp.srcport >= 1662 and tcp.srcport <= 1664" is not
used because it does not have the intended effect with fields that have
multiple occurrences (e.g. tcp.port). Each condition could be satisfied
by an other value. Therefore a new DVFM instruction (ANY_IN_RANGE) is
added to test the range condition against each individual field value.
