That hadn't even occurred to me; I was thinking more of the fact that
we don't have a separate 'head' structure for reassembly chains and
just assume certain fields are set/unset based on whether the
structure is first in the list or not.

I just made an attempt to clean that up.

In the process, I found at least one dissector that assumes that the head structure and the fragment structure look the 
same, and even some of the freeing code in reassemble.c assumes that.

I dropped the attempt in question for now.

A from-scratch rewrite might called for here.
