iface_lists: do not drop named pipes from interfaces list
(Named) pipes like "/tmp/fifo" or "-" have if_type == IF_WIRED instead of IF_PIPE. Always try to add such interfaces such that "wireshark -i /tmp/fifo" shows a "/tmp/fifo" item in the interfaces list. Note that if an interface is really gone (like a disconnected USB Ethernet device), then this could result in stale items in the list. Ping-Bug: 13865 Fixes: v2.3.0rc0-2812-g40a5fb567a ("Restore interface selection after interface refresh") Change-Id: Id05c65df332490a5bb789e4d6ca6404358edc3ec Reviewed-on: https://code.wireshark.org/review/22407 Reviewed-by: Anders Broman <a.broman58@gmail.com>
