FT_BYTES.  There *is* no 12-byte integral data type in Wireshark, so there *is* no FT_UINT?? that you can use to 
display it as a 96-bit integer.

Or don't use proto_tree_add_item(), but, instead, fetch it by hand, convert it to an nstime_t (seconds since January 1, 
1970, 00:00:00 UTC, and nanoseconds), and add it as an FT_ABSOLUTE_TIME, if that conversion is possible.
