This is old terminology.  See
http://www.opensolaris.org/os/community/arc/policies/interface-taxonomy/
for the current interface stability taxonomy.

What's the stability level of the format of the packet capture files
generated by this project?  

I'd expect files generated by an older version to be readable by any
future version, but Volatile would permit the format to be changed
incompatibly in a patch rendering the older files unreadable; the
documentation you quoted clealy shows a commitment by the wireshark
maintainers akin to Committed on the ability to read varying packet
capture formats.
