* remove imagemagick build dependency and demote xdg-utils deps
xdg-utils is needed for xdg-open (opening websites) at runtime in GTK+,
but not for Qt nor during the build, remove it or mark it as optional.

They are now installed by CMake

* Transition from GeoIP Legacy to MaxMindDB.
MaxMind is discontinuing its legacy databases in April in favor of
GeoIP2, which use a newer database format (MaxMind DB). The reference C
library (libmaxminddb) is available under the Apache 2.0 license which
isn't quite compatible with ours.

* Give more detailed information about capture permissions on Debian.
Indicate what you're supposed to do when running dpkg-reconfigure
wireshark-common, and indicate that you have to run it as root using
sudo.
Emphasize in README.Debian, and indicate in the permission failure
secondary message, that you have to add users to the "wireshark" group
after doing that, and that a user may have to log out and log in again
to make this change take effect.
