Err, umm, so what would the bitmasks *do*?  Mask out the bits of the individual
characters?

Note that FT_STRING* should *ONLY* be used for fields that are represented as
character strings in the packet; they should *NOT* be used for fields that have
integral values.

VALS() should be usable - define two separate hf_ values, with the *same* field
name, and with *different* value_string tables, and use the appropriate one
based on the subtype.
