Writing a LUA tap I noticed that the DNS AAAA type is not linked with any field
in the DNS dissector so I was unable to use it within my tap.
The simple patch attached populates it in the field "dns.resp.addr6".
Results follows:
root@server:~# /usr/local/bin/tshark -2 -Q -n -r dns-ip6.pcap -X
lua_script:test.lua
Running as user "root" and group "root". This could be dangerous.
DNS     1370007531.655144000    www.google.es   AAAA
