Don't write the SP_SUCCESS messages unless -Z was specified.
Add support for a machine-readable "-v" output, which prints only the
pcap version string.
Give a little more information about the machine-readable format, but
note that it's primarily intended for consumption by Wireshark and
TShark and is subject to change.
Properly hyphenate "pcap-ng".
