This patch adds support to wiretap for Visual Networks traffic capture
files.  Two new files were added.  The following files have changes:

wiretap/file.c - Adds visual_open to the list.  This was placed before
etherpeek because otherwise EtherPeek's heuristic will attempt to open the
Visual file format.  The files have a magic number at the start which is
easily detected by the visual_open code.

wiretap/wtap.h - Add new file type enum.
Makefile.am - Add visual.c and visual.h.

A sample HTTP capture file is also included.  The code
has been tested Linux on an Intel platform.  I don't have
access to a big-endian machine to test that all of the bytes
were swapped correctly in all places.  If anyone can verify
this, please drop me a note.

Please let me know if I need to submit any other files.
Makefile.am seemed to be the only build file that changed.

Thanks,
Tom
