Ok, I will split it.

I moved codecs dir to epan for:
1. Register new codecs in the same way as dissectors, because they are used
similar, see epan/epan.c. In my opinion there is the best place to registering
them.
This was useful to remove unneeded code from (linking with not free library,
also put manually their sources into Wireshark), see ui/gtk/rtp_player.c.
Because there is nice API to register, decode, find, init and release codecs
(see epan/codecs.h).
2. Linking with external library libsbc
3. Audio decoding is another method to dissecting packets. Listening music
instead of read text (Packet Details).

SBC is LGPL. Also I am linking with shared library only if libsbc is detected
in system (by ./configure). Code around SBC in Wireshark is written by me.
