  Added files:
    .                    ringbuffer.c ringbuffer.h 
  Log:
  Make the bytes-written information from Wiretap a long, as we allow
  files to get that big.
  
  From Thomas Wittwer and Matthias Nyffenegger:
  
  Support for "ring buffer mode", wherein there's a ring buffer of N
  capture files; as each capture file reaches its maximum size (the ring
  buffer works only with a maximum capture file size specified), Ethereal
  rolls over to the next capture file in the ring buffer, replacing
  whatever packets might be in it with new packets.
