Processing packet data via tvb_get_ptr() is like palpating a cow -- it's
messy and you shouldn't do it unless you REALLY have to. Change several routines to use standard tvb_get_* accessors instead of operating on raw packet data. This fixes an integer overflow in dissect_vendor_ie_rsn() found by Neil Kettle. Use value_strings instead of duplicating their functionality with our own routines. Print the WME surplus bandwidth allowance factor. Fix some compiler warnings. Update the release notes. Some of the changes are untested due to a lack of capture data. svn path=/trunk/; revision=20126
