Updated libpcap ebuild to 1.2.0

Hi 

I updated the libpcap ebuild to 1.2.0 (released 24 july 2011).

libpcap 1.2.0 also fixed a bug for me using snaplength < 45. Where it would capture only 26 bytes in each frame even if the packet was larger.

I have not incorporated the older "patches", as I do not really know what it fixes and if it still applies to libpcap-1.2.0.
