Remove the tshark -z compare feature
- It cannot support IPv6.
- Non-standard use (specifically recommended against in the RFCs)
of the IPv4 fragment ID field.
- Has a narrow and non-obvious use case, IMO.
- It is not supported in the Qt GUI.
- Significant maintenance burden for an obscure feature.
