r40682 ("mac80211: clean up ht capability handling, drop the use of the
ht_capab list, use individual variables instead") removed the ht_capab list and
replaced it with optional variables to disable features for a phy. But these
variables weren't added in drv_mac80211_init_device_config and thus didn't make
any difference when modifying /etc/config/wireless.

This patch enables netifd to query 802.11ac-driver for the maximum
supported A-MPDU length exponent, possibly increasing VHT throughput by
more aggressive frame aggregation.

This patch implements support for 802.11s protected mesh wireless networks (using authsae) in the netifd framework.
Until meshd-nl80211 implements a proper -P option for the PID file, this uses shell backgrounding in order to be able to get the PID for the process.

This patch introduces 802.11ac support to mac80211 and hostapd. The split of
VHT160 in two 80 MHz bands is not yet supported, since it requires an
additional user supplied parameter for the channel of the second band.

This patch fixes a bug in /lib/netifd/wireless/mac80211.sh, where
the UCI setting of wireless multicast traffic (in uci: mcast_rate)
is not respected within netifd. Especially in Freifunk mesh networks
the olsr routing as effected by this, as only the lowest mcast_rate
was used, even when uci ncast_rate was set to something else.
In function mac80211_setup_adhoc() the value of mcast_rate is missing
in json_get_vars.
