The packet list sort indicator is not cleared when a captured file is closed
and another one opened.   When the next file is opened it will display the sort
indicator used for the previously opened file.   If the newly opened file has
less than 1500 packets then the packet list will not in fact be sorted.  If the
newly opened file has 1500 or more packets the newly opened file will be sorted
by the column with with the sort indicator.

Workaround: If one has used sorting, explicitly sort on the desired column
after opening the next capture file.

Problem seen on both OS X and Windows.
