Add common routines for command-line libwiretap error reporting.
These are similar to the routines added to ui/alert_box.c for dialog-box libwiretap error reporting. This centralizes the knowledge about what to say for various libwiretap errors, removing some duplicate code, and giving more details in some programs.
