PCAP loaders need to be reworked

I am opening this to track the work and also to signal why things have been quiet. I am trying to change some of the pcap loading internals to prevent some tricky bugs I've experienced jumping around pcaps using the marks commands. At the root of it, the issue is that there is one loader "struct" and I re-use it repeatedly, and likely there are some corners that are not correctly initialized or some races I haven't teased out. A better structure would be to have a loader per pcap file that I can let golang garbage-collect when I'm done with it.
