This patch attempts to address the TODO in epan/dissectors/packet-mongo.c:
Implement BSON spec to correctly see BSON document type and not in Bytes
format...

The specification for BSON can be found at http://bsonspec.org/

The decoding is not entirely complete, there are still potential enhancements
to provide more information about a couple of data types, but it greatly
enhances visibility into these packet types for me.

This is my first effort working with the Wireshark codebase, so comments are
greatly appreciated.

Patch built and fuzzed on 64bit Linux (Ubuntu 10.10).  

The sample packet capture is traffic generated by the OWASP Hatkit Proxy tool
communicating with a local MongoDB installation.
