autotools: Initial work to install headers for the benefit of plugins
Install public headers required to build plugins for libwireshark (taps and
dissectors).
The source tree is organized to serve the CLI/GUI parts of wireshark.
Plugins are built in tree. This change is intende to allow plugins to be built
out-of-tree but we want to avoid dumping all headers into /usr/include.
To be continued incrementally to fix errors and omissions.
