A lot of these bugs appear to be the result of developers typing "item" when
they mean "uint" - i.e., they extracted a field from the packet in order to use
its value later in the dissection, and then, in order to put it into the
protocol tree without re-fetching it, they intended to do
proto_tree_add_uint(..., value);
but instead typed
proto_tree_add_item(..., value);
(Another reason why I'm more and more inclined to believe that the current way
dissectors are written is much too low-level.)
