Not sure why there is two link types for IEEE 802.15.4.

The "no FCS at the end" case doesn't need a link type, if the snaplen
is 2 bytes shorter than the packet should be, then there is no FCS at
the end.

Since every decoder needs to know how to deal with a snaplen less than
the original packet length (don't they?), we've been writing pcaps
from a usbkey that gives us packet captures without FCS, and I just
set the snaplen to what we got, and they decode fine.

Cheers,
Sam
