This patch contains an enhanced replacement for the OLSR (v1) packet dissector
in epan/dissectors/packet-olsr.c

I have restructured the old code, pushed both IPv4 and IPv6 into the same
codepath and put each OLSR message into a subtree of it's own.

In addition to this the new dissector supports the custom message types of the
NRL-OLSR and Olsr.org implementation (the custom messages are used for
linkquality support and nameservices). The optional messages can be switched of
in the OLSR preferences page.

I have checked the code myself on a Debian Lenny and a Gentoo machine with
OLSR.org (both 64 Bit x86), Justin Dean (from NRL) did check it for NRL-OLSR
packages and Aaron Kaplan from Funkfeuer Vienna (http://wiki.funkfeuer.at)
checked it on Mac OS.
