Well, I've just updated wireshark on my system and encountered couple of
compile errors while building libvirt. Here are the fixes. Fortunately, none of
them requires us to increase the version number of wireshark that's required.

However, I'd like to discuss how are we going to handle this. I mean, at
wireshark they don't seem so committed to API stability as we are. Therefore
this patch set. In the long term I don't see us adapting to every single API
change, or do I? Although I am not sure what are our options here.

Michal Privoznik (5):
  wireshark: s/proto_tree_add_text/proto_tree_add_item/
  wireshark: s/ep_alloc/wmem_alloc/
  wireshark: s/tvb_length/tvb_captured_length/
  wireshark: Replace WIRESHARK_COMPAT with actual version comparison
  wireshark: Fix header of get_message_len()
