    Optimize dissect_eth_common(): cache result of get_ether_name()
    
    In Anders profile output[1] is looks like that get_ether_name() is called
    four times, twice for src and dst. get_ether_name() takes ~2% of Ir, so
    caching result should reduce Ir count by 1%.
    
    Similar thing was already done for UDP and TCP - 5235dc6ca0d7ec4e6c1fe38cae34763366830629

    from  70d67a2   Make packet-ieee80211.c a tiny bit less unreadable. <rant> This file is riddled with lots of magical flags causing the code to do one thing or another, and then in several cases with non-telling variable names (e.g. is_centrino). My absolute favourite is
