Hi all,

This release adds a new plugin type "filter" and 5 new plugins that can
do anonymization, deanonymization and masking of the IP addresses.

  00f4b04a179e2a7c81a426c72ab228efe408868c1caf0c6cb0aa7906055222f4

Packages are available at:

  https://dev.dns-oarc.net/packages/

New features:
- Check plugins for `pluginname_type()` which returns
  `enum plugin_type`, if missing the plugin is counted as an
  "output" plugin
- New plugin type "filter" which calls `pluginname_filter()` prior of
  outputting any data or calling of "output" plugins, if the new
  function returns non-zero then the packet is filtered out (dropped)
- New extension `DNSCAP_EXT_SET_IADDR` that gives access to a function
  for setting the from and to IP addresses both in the extracted data
  and the wire

New plugins:
- `anonaes128`: Anonymize IP addresses using AES128
- `anonmask`: Pseudo-anonymize IP addresses by masking them
- `cryptopan`: Anonymize IP addresses using an extension to Crypto-PAn
  (College of Computing, Georgia Tech) made by David Stott (Lucent)
- `cryptopant`: Anonymize IP addresses using cryptopANT, a different
  implementation of Crypto-PAn made by the ANT project at USC/ISI
- `ipcrypt`: Anonymize IP addresses using ipcrypt create by
  Jean-Philippe Aumasson

Bugfixes:
- Fix changing `royparse` and `txtout` with other plugins (thanks to
  Duane Wessels and Paul Hoffman)
- Free pointers to allocated strings in `text_free()` (thanks to Michał
  Kępień)
- Fix IP checksum calculation

Other changes:
- `-B` and `-E` can be used without `-w` (thanks to Duane Wessels)
- Use `pcap_findalldevs()` instead of `pcap_lookupdev()` (thanks to
  Michał Kępień)
- Document and add `-?` option to all plugins
- Fix clang `scan-build` bugs and LGTM alerts
- Use `gmtime_r()` instead of `gmtime()`
- Update `pcap-thread` to v4.0.0
