 Introduce an optional (ep_ and se_) memory scrubber.  When activated (export
 WIRESHARK_DEBUG_SCRUB_MEMORY to turn it on) this function initializes all
 allocated memory to 0xBADDCAFE and all freed memory to 0xDEADBEEF.  (Of course
 the allocation functions like ep_alloc0() re-initialize the allocated memory
 back to 0.)

There seems to be an increasing nunmber of variables that ssem to be lacking
documentation. How about adding them to the manpage(s)?
