Great stuff.

I have checked them in.

The find_protocol_by_id() patch,
i modified the approach slightly and just stores the protocol_t
structure directly in hfinfo->strings  since this field isnt used by
FT_PROTOCOL anyway and this field already have multiple meanings
depending on the type of field.
This amkes the patch less intrusive and removes the need to modify
dissectors or add new  fast versions of some calls.

great stuff.
