Curently, VLAN dissector assumes that there is no FCS in the packet. It passes
everything to sub-dissectors, and, if something left after them, displays the
rest as a trailer.
This creates problems for sub-dissectors which unable to deduce amount of data
to be dissected, like SAToP or MPLS PW ATM.
According to IEEE Std 802.1Q, 4-byte FCS always present at the end of VLAN
frame.
