149e74b by Guy Harris (guy@xxxxxxxxxxxx):

    Put the interface descrptions into the IDB when capturing to pcapng.
    
    capture_opts_add_iface_opt(), when called in a program acting as a
    capture child, will fetch the description for the interface, and will
    also generate a "display name" for the interface.
    
    In the process, we clean up capture_opts_add_iface_opt() a bit,
    combining duplicate code.
    
    We rename console_display_name to just display_name, as it may also be
    used in the title bar of Wireshark when capturing.
