Done ...

I've updated tvbtest.c slightly to reflect the recent tvbuff.c revisions.

I've also fixed an issue in tvbtest.c which caused some of the composite tvb tests to fail.

All of the tests in tvbtest now run successfully (including those testing composite tvbs).

So there's some claim that composite tvbs now work. I'd want to do a detailed walkthrough of the tvbuff composite code with a debugger before I'd be comfortable with actually using composite tvbs.

Whether using composite tvbs as currently implemented is a good thing is, of course, a different discussion.
