Checked in, with additional changes to get rid of references to
"pinfo->captured_len" - that's the length of the entire frame, not the
length of the portion that belongs to the 802.11 dissector (there are
currently no dissectors for protocols in which 802.11 is encapsulated,
so it doesn't currently make a difference, but dissectors should use
"tvb_length()" and so on to get that information for the tvbuff they
were handed).
