Print an optional packet count on stderr instead of printing packets
This change add an option to print only on stderr the packet count
when reading capture file(s) instead of parsing/printing the packets.
If a filter is specified on the command line, tcpdump counts only
packets that were matched by the filter expression.
The option name is '--count'.
