pcapng: add API to read back capture mbuf header
Analysis with AI tells that there are some opportunities to make the
fast path of lib/pcapng both lighter and less .pcapng-centric to make
life of consumers that prefer other formats easier. It does not have to
(probably even shouldn't) be a part of the current patchset though.
app/rpcapd: remote pcap daemon
Ideally forwarding captured data could run in a separate thread with
minimum unnecessary syscalls, although it's hard to tell without
benchmarks how much current design is slowed down by them.
app/rpcapd: add TLS support
This patch simultaneously adds authentication, but it's only required
for non-loopback users. This is a common security vulnerability, not all
loopback users can be trusted. So if we care about authentication at
all, it should probably also be required for localhost users, at least
by default.
