Wireshark-bugs: [Wireshark-bugs] [Bug 6969] mergecap: Can't open or create <FILENAME>: Internal

That's WTAP_ERR_INTERNAL from Wiretap, returned if either:

    1) an error occurred in the process of opening a gzipped file for writing,
which we currently don't do

or

    2) an attempt to open a pcap-NG file supplied no interface data.

If that happens on an attempt to write a pcap-NG file with data from files in a
format with no explicit interface data (currently, only pcap-NG has it,
although some other file formats could supply it as well), that's broken - we
need to synthesize interface information somewhere.
