Idea was to replace all dissector_t variants into one, which definetely would break API. Simpler version of patch I commited after almost week (night of 4/09 -> evening of 10/09). It took me some time do to it, but I'm open to revert this changes and add new *_dissector_t (instead of replacing), but do we really want 5 different dissector types: old-style, new-style, data-style, heur, heur-data?
