I have tried to implement this and found out that all dissectors
register their fields in a first routine that is called by wireshark:
proto_register_*.
But I can get info about protocol fields and types only after user
chooses file with protocol description via dissector setting. It means
that I can get that info only in
proto_reg_handoff_*.

Is there a way to register fields in a proto_reg_handoff_*, not in a
proto_register_*?
