Message:

Silently discard ERF provenance records when writing PCAP.

Doesn't include other formats for now, which tend to only check for TRACE_TYPE_NONDATA. More thought is needed on genericizing these non-data linktype checks vs the IS_LIBTRACE_META_PACKET check in trace_write_packet() which is currently false for provenance records.
Make pcapfile, pcap and pcapint do the same checks.
