We have (two versions) of MS() and SM() macros which we use throughout
the wireless code. Change all but three places (ath_hal, rtwn, and rsu)
to the newly provided _IEEE80211_MASKSHIFT() and _IEEE80211_SHIFTMASK()
macros. Also change one internal case using both _S and _M instead of
just _S away from _M (one of the reasons rtwn and rsu were not changed).
This was done semi-mechanically. No functional changes intended.

In r178354 with the introduction of multi-bss ("vap") support factoring
out started and with r193340 ieee80211_media_change() no longer returned
ENETRESET but only 0 or error.
As ieee80211(9) tells the ieee80211_media_change() function should not
be called directly but is registered with ieee80211_vap_attach() instead.
Some drivers have not been fully converted. After fixing the return
checking some of these functions were simply wrappers between
ieee80211_vap_attach() and ieee80211_media_change(), so remove the extra
function, where possible as well.

- Alignment issues:
* Add missing __packed attributes + padding across all drivers; in
most places there was an assumption that padding will be always
minimally suitable; in few places - e.g., in urtw(4) / rtwn(4) -
padding was just missing.
* Add __aligned(8) attribute for all Rx radiotap headers since they can
contain 64-bit TSF timestamp; it cannot appear in Tx radiotap headers, so
just drop the attribute here. Refresh ieee80211_radiotap(9) man page
accordingly.
- Since net80211 automatically updates channel frequency / flags in
ieee80211_radiotap_chan_change() drop duplicate setup for these fields
in drivers.

Generic Tx stats fixes:
- do not try to parse "aggregation status" for single frames; send them
to iwn_tx_done() instead;
- try to attach mbuf / node reference pair to reported BA events;
allows to fix reported status for ieee80211_tx_complete() and ifnet counters
(previously all A-MPDU frames were counted as failed - see PR 210211);
requires few more firmware bug workarounds;
- preserve short / long retry counters for wlan_amrr(4)
(disabled for now - causes significant performance degradation).
- Add new IWN_DEBUG_AMPDU debug category.
- Add one more check into iwn_tx_data() to prevent aggregation ring
overflow.
- Workaround 'seqno % 256' != 'current Tx slot' case (until D9195 is not
in the tree).
- Improve watchdog timer updates (previously watchdog check was omitted
when at least one frame was transmitted).
- Stop Tx when memory leak in currently used ring was detected (unlikely
to happen).
- Few other minor fixes.
Was previously tested with:
- Intel 6205, STA mode (Tx aggregation behaves much better now).
- Intel 4965AGN, STA mode (still unstable).

This removes the direct WME info access in the ieee80211com struct and instead
provides a method of fetching the data. Right now it's a no-op but eventually
it'll turn into a per-VAP method for drivers that support it (eg iwn, iwm,
upcoming ath10k work) as things like p2p support require this kind of behaviour.
Tested:
* ath(4), STA and AP mode
TODO:
* yes, this is slightly stack size-y, but it is an important first step
to get drivers migrated over to a sensible WME API. A lot of per-phy things
need to be converted to per-VAP before P2P, 11ac firmware, etc stuff shows up.
1) They are using wrong tag (Tx) + map (Rx) combination.
2) Rx descriptor is already synchronized in iwn_notif_intr()
3) It's not needed for transmitted data since device does not change
mbuf contents.

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.
