81f398305a make superg/fast-frames state dynamically-allocated (and indirect off
the com structure instead of embedded); this reduces the overhead when
not configured and reduces visibility of the contents

ec9a1dd6fa Hoist 802.11 encapsulation up into net80211:
o call ieee80211_encap in ieee80211_start so frames passed down to drivers
  are already encapsulated
o remove ieee80211_encap calls in drivers
o fixup wi so it recreates the 802.3 head it requires from the 802.11
  header contents
o move fast-frame aggregation from ath to net80211 (conditional on
  IEEE80211_SUPPORT_SUPERG):
  - aggregation is now done in ieee80211_start; it is enabled when the
    packets/sec exceeds ieee80211_ffppsmin (net.wlan.ffppsmin) and frames
    are held on a staging queue according to ieee80211_ffagemax
    (net.wlan.ffagemax) to wait for a frame to combine with
  - drivers must call back to age/flush the staging queue (ath does this
    on tx done, at swba, and on rx according to the state of the tx queues
    and/or the contents of the staging queue)
  - remove fast-frame-related data structures from ath
  - add ieee80211_ff_node_init and ieee80211_ff_node_cleanup to handle
    per-node fast-frames state (we reuse 11n tx ampdu state)
o change ieee80211_encap calling convention to include an explicit vap
  so frames coming through a WDS vap are recognized w/o setting M_WDS

With these changes any device able to tx/rx 3Kbyte+ frames can use fast-frames.

37e13d2174 o move tdma+superg protocol defs out of public view
o add #ifdef _KERNEL to superg+tdma include files so they can be used
  by user code to get the protocol defs

382385b98b Fix enough bits so that fast frames work again:
o include ath ie in beacon frames
o fix probe response check for including ath ie
o add ieee80211_add_athcap shorthand for ap-side ie additions

88b91b235f split Atheros SuperG support out into it's own file that's included only
with a new IEEE80211_SUPPORT_SUPERG option
