The wpan (IEEE 802.15.4) has four fields for the possible src/dst addresses.
Currently they are not consistent, and are:
src16
src64
dst_addr16
dst_addr64
This patch renames the destination addresses to just:
dst16
dst64
I don't have a strong opinion about if xxx_addrYY or xxxYY format is better, I
just chose one. If you feel the longer format is better I'll change the patch
around.
The patch also adds in the wpan.frame_length field, which is very handy when
either filtering or graphing with the Wireshark IO Graphs. The field is hidden
by default, as there is really no point in displaying it in the GUI since you
easily get the same information in the status bar.
