4c2df3c5a7 Protocols
---------
	- all protocols on allocation of a configWidget, also populate it before returning from configWidget()
	- VLAN TPID override is now correctly saved and restored from/to its widget (vlan.cpp)
	- Payload protocol returns a minimum frame value of 1 byte size (Hack to avoid crash in stream config dialog when sum of all protocol frame sizes is greater than the frame length
	- small layout changes in mac widget (mac.ui)
	- src/dst ip mask changed from 255.255.255.255 to 255.255.255.0 (ip4.proto)
	- src mac changed from u32 to u64 (mac.proto)
	- "Combo Protocol" protocol container introduced to define newer protocols as a combination of existing protocols e.g. dot2 = dot3 + llc - THIS IS NOT YET COMPLETE (comboprotocol.h)


Client/StreamConfigDialog
-------------------------
	- Advanced Protocol Selection implemented
	- Simple Protocol Selection rewritten to work alongside Advanced
	- Payload Widget is treated like any other protocol - hence it is not placedinto the dialog specially
	- Any protocol selection change (in Simple/Advanced mode) immediately triggers change in the Stream's protocolList
	- Protocol Widgets now are arranged in a toolBox on a top level tab of the dialog instead of a nested tabWidget
	- Vlan selection (Simple Mode) uses Radio buttons instead of checkboxes
	- Double Tagged (SVlan + CVlan) now works via Simple Mode

1357f495ac Major rewrite of the protocol framework - changes not yet complete
Common
------
- Change in OstProto
	- Individual protocols are now extensions of (new) message 'Protocol' instead of 'Stream'
	- Stream now contains a repeated Protocol which also determines the ordered set of currently selected protocols; StreamCore.frame_proto which was doing this earlier has been removed

- Change in AbstractProtocol Interface
	- Parent changed to StreamBase
	- Corresponding change in constructor and factory func - createInstance()
	- new method protocolNumber() - returns unique id for each protocol
	- protoDataCopyInto/From() now copies into OstProto::Protocol instead of OstProto::Stream
- Change in all subclasses of AbstractProtocol to match new interface
- For all protocols, configFrom is no longer static, but each protocol has its own configForm
	- configForm creation is lazy
	- configForm is still a child of the protocol i.e. it will be destroyed alongwith the protocol
	- TODO: convert configWidget() to a pure factory function i.e. the protocol does not own the configForm - this requires us to pass the widget into load/storeConfigWidget() methods

- ProtocolCollection class removed alongwith its .h and .cpp
- ProtocolList class redefined to serve the purpose of ProtocolCollection
- New class ProtocolListIterator defined to iterate ProtocolList
- AbstractProtocol methods now use the ProtocolListIterator
- Factory function createProtocol() added to ProtocolManager
- OstProto::StreamCore accessor functions moved from Stream to StreamBase

Server
------
- MyService uses the newly moved accessors to StreamBase for OstProto::StreamCore members
- StreamInfo now uses the protocols to create the packet

Client
------
- StreamConfigDialog now uses ProtocolListIterator
- So does PacketModel

2ec7fb30c2 Protocol Framework basic code in place now. Cleanup pending.
- New Classes:
  o ProtocolManager - singleton with which all protocols register
  o ProtocolCollection - Aggregates all registered protocols; exports methods to work on all protocols
  o StreamBase - aggregates ProtocolCollection with Stream Core and Control; the client/server side stream classes now derive from StreamBase leading to major reduction in their code (more cleanup pending)
- AbstractProtocol now supports the additional methods
  o createInstance()
  o protocolFrameSize()
  o protocolFrameOffset(), protocolFramePayloadSize()
  o protocolId(), payloadProtocolId()
  o protocolFrameCksum(), protocolFramePayloadCksum()
  0 constructor takes an extra param - frameProtoList
- Specific protocols - eth2, llc, snap, ip4, udp, tcp now return length, protocol id and cksums correctly (tcp/udp cksum pending)
- StreamConfigDialog - protocol controls for length, cksum and protocolid are automatically updated (not fully working yet)
