Some tweaks to make the RE tools work better on live data (not complete yet), refactored some code.

 Things currently broken or in need of attention:
-1. It should be possible to stop the capture at any time.
-2. The details window should tell you the min/max/avg time between frames of this ID
-3. Frame reception gets weird somewhere between 100k and 150k frames. Increase prealloc and re-test
-4. Expanding the main window (while having a large capture going?) could lock up the program
-5. Clicking one of the three main checkboxes (auto scroll, interpret, overwrite) locks up reception
-6. The windows that deal with canbus data should update based on incoming frames. It should not be required to load files to use these windows
-7. Overall, test more often with large captures coming in. Use Kvaser to simulate incoming data in large quantities.
