Dear Wireshark developers,

Currently, Wireshark don't decode BGP capability codes 2 and 128 differently,
although code 2 is standardized Route Refresh Capability for BGP-4 and 128 is
vendor-specific one [1]. For example, Cisco routers interpret the capabilities
as ROUTE-REFRESH capability(new) and ROUTE-REFRESH capability(old) accordingly.
Below is the debug message for a received capabilities:

BGP: 10.255.255.2 passive rcvd OPEN w/ optional parameter type 2 (Capability)
len 2
BGP: 10.255.255.2 passive OPEN has CAPABILITY code: 2, length 0
BGP: 10.255.255.2 passive OPEN has ROUTE-REFRESH capability(new) for all
address-families
BGP: 10.255.255.2 passive rcvd OPEN w/ optional parameter type 2 (Capability)
len 2
BGP: 10.255.255.2 passive OPEN has CAPABILITY code: 128, length 0
BGP: 10.255.255.2 passive OPEN has ROUTE-REFRESH capability(old) for all
address-families

The BGP Open packet is attached.
