This patchset implements packet loss detection in a MPEG2 Transport
Streams (RFC 2250 / ISO/IEC 13818-1).

First patch, is a general fix, that does exception handling for
call_dissector(), as an exception during processing of TS packets
would cause processing to stop of the remaining TS packets.  That
would look like CC drops to the next patch.

Second patch, implements the packet loss detection. Packet loss is
detected by looking for gaps in the CC value (per pid) in the TS
subpackets. The filter is defined as a flag value, named
"mp2t.cc.drop".
