• Restore raw WiFi frame capture support, which had been broken in a few ways
  since Npcap 0.9983. Additional improvements enable PacketSetMonitorMode()
  for non-admin-privileged processes, allowing Wireshark to correctly enable
  monitor mode via checkbox without requiring WlanHelper.exe.

• Fixed WlanHelper.exe to correctly set modes and channels for adapters, if run
  with Administrator privileges. Fixes #122.

• Improved speed of pcap_findalldevs() by using fewer calls to
  GetAdaptersAddresses() and avoiding direct Registry inspection. The new
  method may result in more adapters being available for capture than
  previously reported. See #169.

• Updated Packet.dll to use modern HeapAlloc() allocation, faster than the
  legacy GlobalAlloc() inherited from WinPcap.

• Improve error reporting from PacketGetAdapterNames() and related functions.
