- Add CRC calculation to differ between ciphered and non-ciphered packets without taking care about the encryption bit. This solves crashes when the option "ignore ciphere bit" was activated

What was causing the crashes? If it was caused by ciphered packets being interpreted as non-ciphered, with the dissector crashing because the data it was dissecting wasn't a valid non-ciphered packet, that could also happen with bad packets, so those crashes need to be fixed.
