Log:
  Convert each of the address.h macros to inline functions.

  Document each function. Note that we now call tvb_get_ptr() before
  modifying the address in tvb_set_address() and tvb_set_address_hf().
The
  caller doesn't have to worry about doing that any more. Add
  add_address_to_hash64().

Hmm, the complication in doing this is that it would seem that some
compilers (in this case Sun's) want to resolve the symbols in those
inline functions even in modules the inline functions are not used in.
From the Solaris buildbot's log:

  CCLD   dumpcap
Undefined            first referenced
 symbol                  in file
se_alloc                            dumpcap-capture_opts.o
tvb_get_ptr                         dumpcap-capture_opts.o
ld: fatal: symbol referencing errors. No output written to .libs/dumpcap

I can't imagine we want to link dumpcap with libwireshark but I have
another idea of how to solve this problem.

I switched TVB_SET_ADDRESS, TVB_SET_ADDRESS_HF, and SE_COPY_ADDRESS back
to pure macros in r52122. It might make more sense to move them to
tvbuff.h and emem.h, however.
