This turns ieee80211_node_pwrsave(), ieee80211_sta_pwrsave() and ieee80211_recv_pspoll() into methods. The intent is to let drivers override these and tie into the power save management pathway. For ath(4), this is the beginning of forcing a node software queue to stop and start as needed, as well as supporting "leaking" single frames from the software queue to the hardware. Right now, ieee80211_recv_pspoll() will attempt to transmit a single frame to the hardware (whether it be a data frame on the power-save queue or a NULL data frame) but the driver may have hardware/software queued frames queued up. This initial work is an attempt at providing the hooks required to implement correct behaviour. Allowing ieee80211_node_pwrsave() to be overridden allows the ath(4) driver to pause and unpause the entire software queue for a given node. It doesn't make sense to transmit anything whilst the node is asleep. Please note that there are other corner cases to correctly handle - specifically, setting the MORE data bit correctly on frames to a station, as well as keeping the TIM updated. Those particular issues can be addressed later.
