I renamed the routines "plugin_register()", as that's what a plugin 
containing a dissector would have - it's the dissector registration routine.

A plugin containing a tap would have a "plugin_register_tap_listener()" 
routine; it wouldn't need a "plugin_register()" routine unless it has 
both a dissector *and* a tap.  (Note that a tap would have to avoid 
having any GUI code, as it'd be loaded both by Ethereal and Tethereal - 
it would have to use the stats-tree stuff added by Luis Ontanon.

A plugin with "plugin_init()" is assumed to be an old-style plugin.
