Michal Privoznik 1086888f95 wireshark: Don't special case retval of get_program_data() in dissect_libvirt_message()

The get_program_data() function returns a pointer (in this
specific case to an array of procedure strings) which, if
non-NULL is then passed val_to_str(). Well, if val_to_str() sees
NULL it is treated gracefully, i.e. like if the numeric value
'proc' wasn't found in the array.

Therefore, there's no need to special case call to
col_append_fstr(). Both result into the same behaviour.

=====
About
=====

This is the project of Google Summer of Code 2013 accepted by QEMU.org and
libvirt community.  The goal of this project is, provide Wireshark dissector for
Libvirt RPC protocol. It will provide Libvirt packet overview/detail analysing
in Wireshark. Furthermore, it will be able to build(generated) from RPC protocol
definition placed in Libvirt source tree to support latest protocol
specification.

Installation
=============

Run ``./configure`` with ``--with-wireshark-dissector`` option enabled.
Then dissector will compiled with libvirt itself.

Add/Remove protocol from dissector's support
--------------------------------------------

Modify argument ``input`` in ``tools/wireshark/src/libvirt/meson.build``.

Changing installation directory
-------------------------------

You can change installation directory of pluggable shared
object(``libvirt.so``) by specifying ``--with-ws-plugindir=<path>``.

You can install ``libvirt.so`` into your local wireshark plugin directory:

::

  $ ./configure --with-wireshark-dissector \
                --with-ws-plugindir=$HOME/.wireshark/plugins
