fetch the major OS version. If we're running Windows >= 6 (Vista) _and_ npf.sys isn't running, warn the user in Wireshark and TShark. Add a recent prefs item to disable the warning in Wireshark. svn path=/trunk/; revision=22877

setuid instead of Wireshark. Remove the "DANGEROUS" notices, but leave it disabled by default. Whine if the user runs Wireshark or TShark as root. Add a preference to disable the whining. Add a "setuid-root" script that can be used to switch dumpcap and TShark's setuid-ness on and off for development and testing. Update the release notes and README.packaging. svn path=/trunk/; revision=22733
