[2/4] dumpcap: allow multiple invocations
Checks
Commit Message
If dumpcap is run twice with each instance pointing a different
interface, it would fail because of overlap in ring a pool names.
Fix by putting process id in the name.

I'm not sure getpid() is available on Windows. How about:
#ifdef _WIN32
#include <processthreadsapi.h> // With the headers, not here.
"dumpcap-%lu", GetCurrentProcessId());
#else
"dumpcap-%u", getpid());
#endif

I think the 'app/dumpcap/meson.build' file indicates no support for Windows.

Dumpcap doesn't support windows because there are lots of things about
pdump library that won't work on Windows.
