Bruce M Simpson dd87736a49 Add a port of libpcap 0.8.1. Some work is being done around tcpdump and
libpcap right now, in the areas of wireless and mesh networking. Import
this port so as not to disturb the vendor branch, and bring the bleeding
edge stuff to a wider audience.

libpcap is a ubiquitous network traffic capture library used by a wide
variety of BSD, Linux and UN*X applications.
Whilst FreeBSD has a vendor branch import of libpcap in its source tree,
the purpose of the port is to provide a means of offering additional,
bleeding-edge features which might not make it into the tree.
