fe267a5590 sys: general adoption of SPDX licensing ID tags.
Mainly focus on files that use BSD 2-Clause license, however the tool I
was using misidentified many licenses so this was mostly a manual - error
prone - task.

The Software Package Data Exchange (SPDX) group provides a specification
to make it easier for automated tools to detect and summarize well known
opensource licenses. We are gradually adopting the specification, noting
that the tags are considered only advisory and do not, in any way,
superceed or replace the license texts.

No functional change intended.

f6930bec33 net80211: ieee80211_ratectl*: switch to reusable KPI
Replace various void * / int argument combinations with common structures:
- ieee80211_ratectl_tx_status for *_tx_complete();
- ieee80211_ratectl_tx_stats for *_tx_update();

While here, improve amrr_tx_update() for a bit:
1. In case, if receiver is not known (typical for Ralink USB drivers),
refresh Tx rate for all nodes on the interface.
2. There was a misuse:
- otus(4) sends non-decreasing counters (as originally intended);
- but ural(4), rum(4) and run(4) are using 'read & clear' registers
to obtain statistics for some period of time (and those 'last period'
values are used as arguments for tx_update()). If arguments are not big
enough, they are just discarded after the next call.

Fix: move counting into *_tx_update()
(now otus(4) will zero out all node counters after every tx_update() call)

Tested with:
- Intel 3945BG (wpi(4)), STA mode.
- WUSB54GC (rum(4)), STA / HOSTAP mode.
- RTL8188EU (urtwn(4)), STA mode.

73931706e7 [net80211] Begin implementing rate control module stats.
* Implement a new ratectl method, which defaults to returning nothing;
* Add a top level sysctl (net.wlan.X.rate_stats) to extract it;
* Add ratectl info for the 'amrr' module.

Tested:

* urtwn(4), STA mode

21969c6c24 Switch around the order of static inline to be in line with how it's
used elsewhere, and to keep gcc-4.7 happy.

This is a request from the DragonflyBSD project.

f3c0d88e89 The ni_rctls checks are used to verify that a ratectl algo has set up
its internal data. This has been used to bypass missing calls in drivers
which do not use the ratectl framework correctly. Issue is, not all algos
use that variable, or even have internal data, therefore valid calls are
not done. Fix this by removing the checks, all driver issues should be
resolved.

a7c6aabdc3 Instead of using the AMRR ratectl algo as default for drivers which have
the IEEE80211_C_RATECTL flag set, default to NONE for all drivers. Only if
a driver calls ieee80211_ratectl_init() check if the NONE algo is still
selected and try to use AMRR in that case. Drivers are still free to use
any other algo by calling ieee80211_ratectl_set() prior to the
ieee80211_ratectl_init() call.

After this change it is now safe to assume that a ratectl algo is always
available and selected, which renders the IEEE80211_C_RATECTL flag pretty
much useless. Therefore revert r211314 and 211546.

9a9a302fcd Fix an undefined behaviour if the desired ratectl algo is not available.
This can happen if the algos are built as modules but are not loaded. If
the selected ratectl algo is not available, try to load it (The load
module functions does nothing currently). Add a dummy ratectl algo which
always selects the first available rate. Use that one if the desired algo
is not available.

b6108616ac net80211 rate control framework (net80211 ratectl).
This framework allows drivers to abstract the rate control algorithm and
just feed the framework with the usable parameters. The rate control
framework will now deal with passing the parameters to the selected
algorithm. Right now we have AMRR (the default) and RSSADAPT but there's
no way to select one with ifconfig, yet.
The objective is to have more rate control algorithms in the net80211
stack so all drivers[0] can use it. Ideally, we'll have the well-known
sample rate control algorithm in the net80211 at some point so all
drivers can use it (not just ath).

[0] all drivers that do rate control in software, that is.
