Created an attachment (id=3682)
 --> (https://bugs.wireshark.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=3682)
New patch that displays seq # in both BE & LE plus adds TTL.

After I discovered that the Windows ping sends ICMP echo request packets with
the sequence number in little-endian byte order, but the Linux ping sends it in
proper big-endian format, a discussion about it took place on the mailing list
as to how to handle it (refer to
http://www.wireshark.org/lists/wireshark-dev/200909/msg00216.html).  However,
to keep things simple and avoid adding any new ICMP preferences and/or trying
to guess at the byte order, I thought why not just display the sequence number
in both formats, so that's what this patch does.

I also decided to add the ip_ttl to the packet_info structure so it could be
passed from the IP dissector to the ICMP dissector to be displayed in the Info
column, similar to what ping would show.
