Reassembly in RTSE is a bit special. The reassembly is done when
receiving a SES "MAJOR SYNC POINT", as this indicates the end of the
COTP DT Data stream.  The payload for this pdu is empty, which results
in a empty tvb being sent to RTSE (which then reassemble all previous
received payloads).

Updating the RTSE dissector to a new-style was done by returning
tvb_length(tvb), which in this case is always 0.  Returning 0 from a
new-style dissector means this package was not for us, which is wrong
in this case.

I've added a fix for this in 54693.
