This patch adds fairly comprehensive dissection of header fields in GPRS and
EGPRS data blocks.

There are now 3 dissectors for the protocol: gsm_rlcmac_ul, gsm_rlcmac_dl and
gsm_egprs_rlc_data_block.

gsm_rlcmac_ul, gsm_rlcmac_dl dissects all GPRS blocks (including data blocks)
and EGPRS header blocks.
gsm_egprs_rlc_data_block dissects EGPRS data blocks.

All of these dissectors should be called with pinfo->private_data pointing to a
populated RlcMacPrivateData_t structure,
this is needed to pass the Physical Layer Coding scheme required for correct
header decoding.
For backward compatibility, a NULL pointer causes the dissector to assume GPRS
CS1.

To dissect EGPRS blocks, the gsm_rlcmac_ul or gsm_rlcmac_dl dissector should be
called first 
and then the gsm_egprs_rlc_data_block dissector may be called 0, 1 or 2 times
with each valid EGPRS data block.

The changes to gsmtap.c to support this should probably be treated as
experimental, as this version requires 2 or 3 gsmtap packets per EGPRS data
block.  An alternate implementation would require only one gsmtap packet, but
would require a means of indicating good/bad blocks and segmenting the data
within the gsmtap packet.
