b032f27c36 Multi-bss (aka vap) support for 802.11 devices.
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.

069441f718 Remove wicontrol(8) from the base system. Using wicontrol to configure an
interface has been deprecated since 5.1, wi(4) wireless interfaces are managed
via the net80211 stack and ifconfig.
