a748f8f by Jeff Morriss (jeff.morriss.ws@xxxxxxxxx):

    Clean up the new-file selection criteria in the GUI.
    
    Inspired by looking into
    https://ask.wireshark.org/question/8009/wireshark-ring-buffer-settings-from-command-line/
    
    ... in which the user was confused because a duration set on the command
    line was not reflected in the GUI.  That's because
    I0180c43843f5d2f0c2f50153c9ce42ac7fa5aeae added the `interval` ring-buffer
    option and made the GUI use this rather than `duration`.  This was not at all
    clear in the GUI, though.
    
    Since `duration` and `interval` have quite different use cases, expose both in
    the GUI.
    
    Try to clean up and unify the tooltips at the same time.  I'm not entirely
    convinced the tooltips need to be on the checkbox, the spinbox, and the
    combobox but leave it that way for now.
    
    Add some to the man page description of the interval option to hopefully make
    it clearer what the option does.
