Moving sctp_stat.c to the "independent" ui directory causes <gtk/gtk.h> to not be found, causing a bunch of compile 
errors.  Cursory glance says makefiles (.nmake) should be setup to have the necessary GTK include directories as 
part of the build, but apparently not.


Wrong approach: Stuff that requires <gtk/gtk.h> does not belong into the
ui/ directory but in the ui/gtk/ directory. So either the file should be
moved back into ui/gtk/ or the dependency on gtk should be removed.

All other dependencies on ui/gtk/ have to go as well.

Remove GTK+ and global cfile dependencies from file_dlg_win32.c.

Move the declaration of set_last_open_dir() to ui/util.h. It still
has separate GTK+ and Qt implemenations. We might want to move it to
ui/util.c at some point. Remove a lot of unnecessary GTK+ includes.
Remove most of the references to the global cfile while we're at it.

------------------------------------------------------------------------

My usual process for porting common UI code has been to "svn cp" a file
containing UI-independent code from the gtk directory to the ui
directory, then delete as needed from the old and new locations so as to
preserve SVN history. tap-tcp-stream.[ch] in r51538 shows an example of
this:

Semi-related note: The SCTP Chunk Counter uses the parameter dialog
(tap_param_dlg.[ch]). If anyone happens to beat me to it, *please* use a
single combined dialog instead of separate filter input + statistics
output dialogs. I always feel like Wireshark is asking me to take a
short survey on display filters when I'm trying to view stats.
