Documentation/Use of new protobuf dissector

In the release notes for 2.6.0 it indicates a new dissector has been added to wireshark for protobuf.

https://www.wireshark.org/docs/relnotes/wireshark-2.6.0.html

However, there is no mention of it in either the user or developer documentation.

I have a couple questions:

  1. How to provide the .proto file?
  2. It looks like it doesn't detect fields that contain other fields, and only detects the top level fields. Am I using it wrong?

Thanks.
