8881f3f by Guy Harris (guy@xxxxxxxxxxxx):

    Don't truncate the options field.
    
    Create a placeholder protocol tree item under which to put the options,
    do the analysis of fields from the fixed-length portion of the TCP
    header (such as sequence numbers), and then do a straightforward
    dissection of the options, throwing an exception if we run past the end
    of the options field.
    
    This is a bit simpler, and doesn't add confusing notes about
    truncation of the options.
    
    XXX - we're currently not including selective acknowledgments in any of
    the SEQ/ACK analysis; should we?  That means, of course, that we have to
    dissect the options before doing that analysis, and if the options were
    cut short by slicing, you lose....
