Opened as a new bug since I was unsure how best to patch this one.

packet-fcsb3.c: The description for this dissector is "Fibre Channel Single
Byte Command", and the PROTOABBREV is sb3; however, all the display fields are
currently prefixed with "sbccs", rather than "sb3", the current PROTOABBREV. 
So, we could either change the PROTOABBREV to sbccs, or change the prefix to
sb3.

But, many other "Fibre Channel ..." dissectors have a PROTOABBREV starting with
"fc???", e.g., packet-fcip.c which is the dissector for "Fibre Channel over IP"
and has a PROTOABBREV of fcip.  So, perhaps we should change the PROTOABBREV to
fccs and along with it the description to "Fibre Channel Common Services",
which seems to me to be a more accurate description.

Bottom line: There are a few choices we could make and someone more familiar
with this protocol than I am should probably be making the decision as to how
best correct it.
