   * Our caller might pass in the trailer with FCS included, so we check for

   *
   * which speaks of 2-byte port stamps as being for a "future release".
   *
   * Iris Packet Broker user manuals when VSS Monitoring was owned by
   * Tektronix also mentioned only a 1-byte port stamp.
   *
   * VSS Monitoring has since been acquired by NetScout.
   * Products released in 2019:
   * https://www.netscout.com/sites/default/files/2019-01/PFSPDS_002_EN-1803-nGenius-4200-Series-Packet-Flow-Switch.pdf

   * mention both Port Stamping and VLAN tagging under "traffic port tagging,"
   * and also note separately that up to _256_ ports can be meshed together
   * across hardware to act as a single device.
   *
   * Products released in 2021:
   * https://www.netscout.com/sites/default/files/2021-07/PFSPDS_021_EN-2102%20-%20nGenius%207000%20Series%20Packet%20Flow%20Switches.pdf

   * mention only VLAN tagging, and not Port Stamping in the port tagging
   * feature section.
   *
   * VSS Monitoring has apparently never released a product with 2 byte
   * port stamps, and it seems going forward that port stamping is going
   * to be deprecrated in favor of VLAN tagging.
   *
   * So by default we'll assume port stamps are 1 byte, with 2 bytes
   * port stamps supported via preference (disabled by default.)
   *
   * This means a trailer length must not be more than 14 bytes,
   * and:
   *
   *    must not be 3 modulo 4 (as it can't have both a 1-byte
   *    and a 2-byte port stamp);
   *
   *    can only be either 1 or 2 module 4, depending on the size
   *    of port stamp we accept;
   *
   *    if it's less than 8 bytes, must not be 0 modulo 4 (as
   *    it must have a 1-byte or 2-byte port stamp, given that
   *    it has no timestamp).
