From Lionel Ains:
don't assume that a dissector handle has a protocol associated with it (there's none for the "OSI network layer" dissector, for example, as that dissector hands off to one of several protocols based on the NLPID); rename a few functions to have names that better explain what they do; have separate functions to show all the layer types (dissector tables) and to show all the protocols supported for a layer type, and have both of them take, as an argument, the standard I/O stream to which they should write; improve the parser for the "-d" option to give more information on errors; fix up some comments. svn path=/trunk/; revision=7949
