Use wtap_read_bytes() to skip over bytes when reading a record.
Allow file_read() to take a null pointer as a buffer argument; a null argument means "do everything except copy the bytes from the file to the user buffer". That means that wtap_read_bytes() and wtap_read_bytes_or_eof() also support a null pointer as a buffer argument. Use wtap_read_bytes() with a null buffer argument rather than file_skip() to skip forward over data. This fixes some places where files were mis-identified as ERF files, as the ERF open heuristics now get a short "read" error if they try to skip over more bytes than exist in the file.
