Numerous Changes / Fixes to selfm Dissector:

- Code based on early-June SVN
- Fixed headers / comments through-out.
- Removed extraneous #DEFINE instances and simply referred to absolute
hex-codes for various value_string lookups.
- Finally got a handle on the 'Telnet-length' issue with the extra IAC 0xFF
bytes.  Now the get_selfm_len function is much cleaner and over-all dissection
works much more effectively.
- Extended 'Fast SER' function codes so dissection is cleaned and complete for
the 0xA546 series of sub-function codes.
- Tracking of 'Data Format Response' frames using new wmem list embedded in the
conversation
- Added in re-assembly of multiple-frame 'Read Response' messages and
dissection of these frames using Data Format Response information.

Included is a pcap file showing the new features of the Data Format Response /
Read Response messages.  See frames 129-2523 for the Data Format messages and
following frames for Read Response usage of the data.

Evan - I know you had mentioned a wmem_new function that should be used in
place of one of the wmem_slist functions but now that I'm looking back at the
code I can't recall exactly where you indicated that should be used.
