When a wireless interface is set to "Monitor mode = enabled" in Capture
interfaces window, the menu "Link-Layer header" is not updated, it should
contains new link-layer header (Radiotap, AVS, 802.11) and delete "Ethernet".

As a result, only PPI is available as 802.11 header, not radiotap.

It was working in 1.12.8.

--------------------------
Ex in 1.12.8:
monitor mode disabled:
Link-Layer header: Ethernet / Per-Packet Information / Raw IP

monitor mode enabled:
Link-Layer header: 802.11 plus radiotap header / Per-Packet Information /
802.11 / 802.11 plus AVS / Raw IP

--> This is ok
--------------------------


--------------------------
Ex in 2.0.0rc3:
monitor mode disabled:
Link-Layer header: Ethernet / Per-Packet Information / Raw IP

monitor mode enabled:
Link-Layer header: Ethernet / Per-Packet Information / Raw IP

--> This is not ok.
