Note that this requires that TShark be run in two-pass mode; in one-pass mode, it doesn't know, at the time the request is dissected, whether there's a response or not.

You can't. Capture filters maintain no state that persists from packet to packet, and the only way to match request packets that have no replies is to keep state of that sort (and it'd be even harder for capture filters, as you would have to delay the check for "unanswered" until a sufficient timeout to conclude that no answer is forthcoming).
