packet_analysis: Avoid shared_ptr copying for analyzer lookups

For deeply encapsulated connections (think AWS traffic mirroring format
like IP,UDP,GENEVE,IP,UDP,VXLAN,ETH,IP,TCP), the Dispatcher::Lookup()
method is fairly visible in profiles when running in bare mode.

This changes the Analyzer::Lookup() and Dispatcher::Lookup() return value
breaking the API in favor of the performance improvement.

Relates to zeek/zeek#3379.
