The processing of ASN1 Choice with length==0 generate warnings since SVN23497.
In GSMMAP and CAMEL (BER ASN1 generated) dissectors, this was not the case
previously, whereas, CHOICE with empty field where already used, and correctly
processed.
That's why I propose to add an option in the BER decoder, to display these
warnings (and expert infos) only if requested.
Additionaly, I did add a similar patch for sequence with null length. The
sequence is fully decoded (with or without warning, according to the option).
