o relax some error handling so other drivers (e.g. ath) are usable
o revert ap scanning logic to old scheme
o add to capability info printing for 11a and 11g
the moment, with the deprecated flags.
o Better error reporting on getting values from the driver. When we can't
get one for the default dumpinfo output. The old driver would succeed
for invalid RIDs, while the new driver reports errors. Since the info
we're getting from the card/driver doesn't exist for all cards, we just
don't report them. Improve error reporting elsewhere now that wi_getval
doesn't exit. Also fix a file descriptor leak as a side effect.

ifconfig equivalents. This is the first step in removing them from
the system. Users of wicontrol to configure the wireless card are
strongly encouraged to change their scripts, as sometime in the future
all configuration of the cards that isn't in ifconfig will be removed
with extreme prejustice.
- Move APRATE switch() code to function for clarity.
- Conditionally call wi_printaplist() alone if more than one 'L'
is preset.
- Add the 'Q' flag to suppress printing of extraneous information
in wi_printaplist().
- Re-order second getopt() in main().

some of these need to be enabled for an extra verbose mode or
something):
o Try to print the dBm comms quality. This may or may not be available
for your card in your configuration.
o Print the PRI Id and STA Id. These are in the raw format, so might
be a little hard to read.
o Print CardID so that we can know exactly what kind of card the
user has (this is important if you download firmware to it).
o Regulatory domains are now printed for the card.
o Temp range is printed.
o If you define WI_EXTRA_INFO you get more garbage than is listed
here that you need the manual to decode.
o Channel list is now printed in hex for easier decoding. This has
lead to my discovery that my US symbol card supports channels 12-14
as well as 1-11, which is not allowed in the us/canada.
This ain't pretty, but it isn't horrible either.
Change -l -> -L to match OpenBSD (since we haven't MFC'd it yet).
-l will now list stations that are associated with a hostap (preliminary)

Not much, but it is better than nothing as it discourages
the extremely lazy.
Please read the actual text (the last text was softer than the commit
message about it) before giving me feedback.
Also, in the last commit I also tagged the newly optional elements in
the command line as optional.
