> What about pcap-NG files with a LINKTYPE_ERF interface or interfaces?

Already covered, as the pcap-ng file PB/EPB should already have the
interface_id set. It should not be necessary to extract it from the ERF pseudo
header.

A pcap-ng file with LINKTYPE_ERF can come from:

1) Reading an ERF or pcap LINKTYPE_ERF file and saving as pcap-ng. In this case
WTAP_HAS_INTERFACE_ID already with Bug #7266 and this patch.

2) Dumpcap live capture in pcap format (single capture device) with
LINKTYPE_ERF. This should be covered in this patch, since when Wireshark opens
the temporary file it will use this code?

3) Dumpcap live capture in pcap-ng format (single or multiple capture devices)
with LINKTYPE_ERF. This is trickier, and I am looking at dumpcap support in a
following patch.
