Should we move codecs functions to one of the existing libraries? Or
add it to its own?

They already *are* in their own library, but it's a static library, not a
dynamic library; perhaps we should just make libcodec a dynamic library,
and export functions from it with WS_DLL_PUBLIC.


Yes I should have been clearer in my initial description.
My suggestion with an extra parameter giving the hash table address is also
working fine, so I do not have a strong feeling either way (the changed
parameter is faster to do but might not be the best long term solution).
If possible I would like to have this fixed for Wireshark 2.0.1 but I
wonder if such change is compatible with our usual policy to keep APIs
constant (does it apply when they are buggy?).
