Note some cases where we don't need to check the packet length.
These file formats have 16-bit packet lengths, so, even with some extra metadata added, the packet data length will never be bigger than WTAP_MAX_PACKET_SIZE. (No, we won't ever reduce WTAP_MAX_PACKET_SIZE.) Change-Id: I9e1b1d90971f91cc6e5d66d0aa93841445b2bc22 Reviewed-on: https://code.wireshark.org/review/15186 Reviewed-by: Guy Harris <guy@alum.mit.edu>
