Log:
 From Bill Meier:
 
 1. Use the new (good work!) 'nanosec' precision only for gig pods;
 2. Rework 'struct netxray_hdr' to make it (somewhat) easier
    to maintain and revise:
    a. Declare known hdr fields such as 'captype' instead
       of using offsets in 'xxx placeholder' fields.
    d. Define 'unknown' hdr fields using placeholder names
       based upon hex-offset in the netxray header record.
       (This isn't perfect, but I hope it will make things 
        more manageable).
 3. Update hdr field info (based upon examination of various
    capture files):
    a. Define a hdr field which appears to be 'time-zone' 
       [offset in hours from UTC] for the machine doing
       the capture.
       (Maybe this field can eventually be used for Ethereal
        to display the (local) time as it was at the time
        of the capture).
    b. Describe certain hdr fields as being "file offsets"
       (altho the exact use is still unclear).
 
 Update some comments.
