Build Information:

--
The batadv dissector wasn't really welcome by the wireshark developers due to
the fact that batman-adv is a always changing protocol. This created a lot of
duplicated code inside the dissector. This patch removes the dissector due to
the massive amount of changes waiting to be added to it which would create even
more duplicated code.

The batman-adv developers recommend to use the batctl or an external plugin for
it.
