Hello Dev Team,

I was wondering if you would like me to contribute my changes for the
C-based dissector for Wireshark to support Juniper’s vendor-specific
Information Elements (IEs) for the PFCP protocol -- as a plugin
(plugins/epan) or as an in-built dissector (epan/dissectors/packet-pfcp.c).
Any help here would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you,
Lavanika
