38b6f30 by Michael Mann (mmann78@xxxxxxxxxxxx):
Refactor NCP Python data so that INFO column can be generated on the fly.
The "old" method of populating the INFO column was to dissect all fields of a function/subfunction, then do a search in the tree to find the hf_ values of interest to then format into something for the INFO column. This is very expensive and requires "low level" APIs (for tree manipulation) which really shouldn't be used in a dissector.
The "new" method populates the INFO column at the same time a field is parsed, so nothing has to be revisited.
There are still expert infos (and possibly column APIs) under if (tree)s, but with the FAKE_TREE_IS_VISIBLE "hacks" removed, there should be less fear in removing the tree checks.
