Current svn version of Wireshark can not decode NetFlow v9 packets including a
0 length scope field. The NetFLow v9 packets are exported from Cisco 3620
12.3(22).
Older version (1.2.2 installed via apt in ubuntu) can decode.

Attached patch:
1) solves a bug that the dissect_v9_options_template() function can not store
scope because of wrong in if statement.
2) solves another bug that the dissect_v9_options_template() function
misinterpret the number of scope fields and non-scope fields.
3) skips 0 byte length field when decode data record.
4) skips PEN (Private Enterprise Number) processing in the
dissect_v9_options_template() function when NetFlow v9 packets read, because
PEN is supported in only IPFIX.
