Suggest to expose pinfo.can_desegment to lua script or set its default to true.
Because sometime we invoke standard dissector like http dissector in our own
dissector, and we hope http dissector will return negative (and set
pinfo.desegment_offset and pinfo.desegment_len) when it found it needs more
packet to complete its dissection. But now, it can not happen, because
pinfo.can_desegment default is 0 in lua script. (I don't very sure about this
point)
