It works similar to the way ntohs() works, but does this with data from 
a tvbuff.  ntohs() converts a network byte order short (16-bit) to a 
host byte order short.

>From doc/README.developer:

Network-to-host-order accessors for 16-bit integers (guint16), 24-bit
integers, 32-bit integers (guint32), and 64-bit integers (guint64):

guint16 tvb_get_ntohs(tvbuff_t*, gint offset);
