c8550c0278 Make net80211 drivers supply their device name to the net80211 layer, so
that the latter doesn't need to go through struct ifnet to get their name.

04d1980289 Introduce wtap, the beginnings of a net80211 wlan simulator.
This introduces:

* a basic wtap interface
* a HAL, which implements an abstraction layer for implementing
  different device behavious;
* A visibility plugin, which allows for control over which nodes
  see other nodes (useful for mesh work.)

It doesn't yet implement sta/adhoc/hostap modes but these are quite
feasible to implement.

Monthadar uses it to do 802.11s mesh verification.

The userland tools will be committed in a follow-up commit.
