[patch] dpkt.tcp.parse_opts() infinite-loops on a 0-length option

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?

Call dpkt.tcp.parse_opts() with a set of tcp options that includes a 0-length 
option.

dpkt.tcp.parse_opts('\x02\x00')

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

The function call should terminate, but it infinite loops.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

1.6 on linux

Please provide any additional information below.

This patch makes it advance through the buffer so that the function completes:
