Essentially: proto_register_subtree() registers variables (usually named ett_...) which are used to store state as to 
whether a particular sub-tree is expanded or not in the "packet-details" pane in the GUI.

...so that, if you've opened up a particular subtree (such as, for example, the top-level subtree for IPv4) in one 
packet, if you click on another packet, that particular subtree will be automatically opened.
