1edd9c5b7a Add entry for Prism-3 based Siemens SpeedStream card. It has 
identical packaging and model numbers, but has had the Prism-II chips
replaced by Prism-3.  The wi driver was just updated with the new
entry.

f1345f5393 Add a few clarifications to this man page. Also, add a table that 
describes the minimum versions of each feature and each chipset type
supported by this driver.  Basically, unless you have a very modern
version of firmware on a Prism card, you won't be able to use these
cards for much on modern networks that have any kind of protection
enabled, except for the few WEP-only stranglers that appear at some
conferences...

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.
