If an EnhancedPacketBlock in a pcapng file contains a comment option the
content isn't displayed. Instead "Malformed packet" is displayed with the
reason Exception occurred.
The reason for the problem is a bug in the pcapng.c, where for enhanced packet
blocks, interface description blocks and interface statistics blocks the wrong
union members are used to set the comment. This way required fields in the
structures are overwritten.
The attached patch solves the problem.
