Add support for IPv6 heuristic dissectors.
This adds limited support for heuristic subdissectors with IPv6.
The initial motivation is STT but it should transparently work
for other protocols using IP heuristic dissectors in a manner
similar to the non-heuristic dissectors.
The limitation is in regards to IPv6 extension headers. IPv6 has
multiple checks against the next protocol table when determining
when the protocol is an unknown extension header or not. This
assumes that the check is cheap and has no side effects, neither
of which is true for heuristic dissectors. As a compromise, this
assumes that the next protocol is registered as protocol, even
if is not the one that is ultimately dissected. Although not
strictly correct, in practice this is true for existing protocols
and likely future ones because the heuristic dissectors are
overriding non-heuristic ones.
