o add IEEE80211_C_STA capability to indicate sta mode is supported
(was previously assumed) and mark drivers as capable
o add ieee80211_opcap array to map an opmode to the equivalent capability bit
o move IEEE80211_C_OPMODE definition to where capabilities are defined so it's
clear it should be kept in sync (on future additions)
o check device capabilities in clone create before trying to create a vap;
this makes driver checks unneeded
o make error codes return on failed clone request unique
o temporarily add console printfs on clone request failures to aid in
debugging; these will move under DIAGNOSTIC or similar before release
- Limit grabbing the lock to SIOCSIFFLAGS.
- Move ieee80211_start_all() to SIOCSIFFLAGS.
- Remove SIOCSIFMEDIA as it is not useful.
- Limit ether_ioctl to only SIOCGIFADDR. SIOCSIFADDR and SIOCSIFMTU have no
affect as there is no input/output path in the vap parent. The vap code
will handle the reinit of the mac address changes.
- Split off ndis_ioctl_80211 as it was getting too different to wired devices.
This fixes a copyout while locked and a lock recursion.

Note this includes changes to all drivers and moves some device firmware
loading to use firmware(9) and a separate module (e.g. ral). Also there
no longer are separate wlan_scan* modules; this functionality is now
bundled into the wlan module.

free function controlable, instead of passing the KVA of the buffer
storage as the first argument.
Fix all conventional users of the API to pass the KVA of the buffer
as the first argument, to make this a no-op commit.
Likely break the only non-convetional user of the API, after informing
the relevant committer.
Update the mbuf(9) manual page, which was already out of sync on
this point.
Bump __FreeBSD_version to 800016 as there is no way to tell how
many arguments a CPP macro needs any other way.
This paves the way for giving sendfile(9) a way to wait for the
passed storage to have been accessed before returning.
This does not affect the memory layout or size of mbufs.

No MFC is anticipated.
The call should happen with the driver lock held. We don't hold the driver
lock in newstate as it's a separate thread where we can't sleep (and we only
call wpi_cmd in async mode).

that the driver will handle WEP encryption. However, this does not seem to be
implemented by this driver (or maybe the chipset doesn't support it?)
Removing the flag makes my wpi card work using wpa_supplicant(8) on a
network with 802.1x security (without this change it authenticated fine, but
tcpdump only saw garbage packets)
