The user may have several profiles with different settings, and will
have to update all profiles with new settings again.
I think we should try preserving the preferences instead of giving warnings.

We also mark removed dissector preferences
(prefs_register_obsolete_preference) and protocols
(prefs_register_protocol_obsolete) as obsolete.
