reasseble.c is good for fragmented packets, I use it when I have
fragmented packets over a few frames.
I need a solution that composite was supposed to give, in the same
frame. I will explain graphically. 
Let's say this is my buffer for the given frame:
1xxxxxxx
xxxxxxxx
xxx2ooxx
xxxxxxxx
x3ooxxxx
xxxxx4oo
xxxxxxxx

I need a function that will help me get a new buffer (in the same frame,
without touching the original buffer) that will be:
1xxxxxxx
xxxxxxxx
xxx2xxxx
xxxxxxx3
xxxxxxxx
x4xxxxxx
xx

I want to display the original buffer and parse it as usual, I also want
to have the new buffer to be sent to a different dissector that will
take care of the appended data.

Not working and unused API for at least 4 years... it means than can be
removed, right? :)

Isn't reassemble.c API good (and working!) replacement for composite
TVBs?
