Plugin Interface: Add GUI callbacks
Rename ext_menubar to a more appropriate plugin_if.
External menus can be implemented by plugins to present
additional menus for deep-packet analysis. One side-effect
of such menus being implemented as plugins is, that they
are being executed in different threads and therefore can
only use limited access to the main GUI. Also, there is
no safe cross-gui (GTK and Qt) way for many features.
This patch implements a first functionality, by which a
plugin implemented using ext_menubar can apply a display
filter to the main view.
For now the implementation supports filtering, as well as
saving a preference.
