Wireshark-bugs: [Wireshark-bugs] [Bug 7530] Memory leak of frame_data->opt_comment when closing

Comment # 7 on bug 7530 from
A deeper issue here seems to be the fact that frame_data contains some
temporary information that needs to be cleared on a rescan, and some permanent
information that should not be cleared until the file is closed.

The per-protocol frame data also has this problem, since it doesn't seem right
to clear it on a rescan?

Perhaps it should be split somehow, pinfo might be one way, though I think its
lifetime is too short.
