protobuf-wireshark-runtime-0.1 is available

This version is a significant improvement over v0.5 in that only one
dissector is needed now for all proto files instead of having to generate a
separate plugin for each message. This general dissector now parses proto
files at runtime(i.e during wireshark start). Hence the runtime
designation. The old method of generating one plugin per message is useful
if proto files cannot be dispersed to target host. Development of old
code has been stopped with v0.5. No further enhancements or even bug fixes
are planned with that version. New code is being maintained actively and an
effort will be made to push it into wireshark codebase so that developers
neednt specifically build dissectors for a particular platform. Additionally
new code fixes problems when used in 64bit environments and support
for protobuf int64 type. Please look at the README-runtime-v0.1.txt for
options on configuring and building dissector and unning wireshark with
proto files(and associated config)
