*My* intent was to revert back out my change to go back to what Joerg had intended in r34356.  That revision says the 
intent was "to increase common source code coverage".

I think I had also see some comments (r28285, for example) about wanting/trying to get the AirPcap GUI working on 
Linux.  I don't know much more than that since I don't have one of the devices to play with.  Joerg?
I understand the point of code coverage... However, as far as I know the stuff works only
on Windows. That's why we setup a test machine with Windows and test this with the AirPcap
devices Cace provided us. Having these devices helped a lot, but we only have them running
on Windows...

So Joerg: It makes sense to have the auto* stuff and the cmake stuff as much in line as
possible. But it would make sense to have the Airpcap stuff on by default on Windows,
and off by default on other platforms. We can leave support in for switching them on,
as this might help during development.

It is (as far as I know) only supported on Windows platforms, when having some
software installed. So why compile the stuff on non windows platforms?

Log:
Revert r37423: the intent of r34356 was to enable Airpcap by default, it just
didn't work as intended.

Then make it so we build with Airpcap by default.

This should hopefully be the end of https://bugs.wireshark.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=4879
