pcap: forcing pcap_loop() failures

Recent versions of libpcap have a pcap_breakloop() function that does what you are specifically asking for (called inside a packet loop handler, it causes an immediate return from the loop with a -2 error code), although I suspect that using the "any" interface, or pcap_next_ex(), might be better solutions to your overall problem.
