[PATCH 2/2] Wiretap: Add support for Android Logcat

Changelog:
- rebase

The question is:
1. Is that file format? or...
2. Is that protocol format? or...
3. Is that log format? (my favorite - this need records while file format may
not)

While Wireshark has support for file dissection, will be nice to have something
for "log-based" something, like: Linux Kernel Messages (see my implementation
at libpcap:
https://github.com/MichalLabedzki/libpcap/commit/280246e55e5b8aa4dd5a6a07aa93628e5a702bab),
unix syslog, udev (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Udev) and other event-based
information (filtering with Wireshark is powerful, also we can capture that,
add comment, etc.)
I think this should be little discussed. (in my opinion wiretap is right place
for that, because it is packet-based; also logcat can be found over USB and
TCP)
