file_seek() used to be a wrapper around fseek() or gzseek(), both of
which could use lseek() and were thus expensive due to system call overhead. To avoid making a system call for every packet on a sequential read, we maintained a data_offset field in the wtap structure for sequential reads. It's now a routine that just returns information from the FILE_T data structure, so it's cheap. Use it, rather than maintaining the data_offset field. Readers for some file formats need to maintain file offset themselves; have them do so in their private data structures. svn path=/trunk/; revision=42423
