When connected to a BSS, or joined to an IBSS, we'll want
to know in userspace without using wireless extensions, so
report the BSS status in the BSS list. Userspace can query
the BSS list, display all the information and retrieve the
station information as well.
For example (from hwsim):
$ iw dev wlan1 scan dump
BSS 02:00:00:00:00:00 (on wlan1) -- associated
freq: 2462
beacon interval: 100
capability: ESS ShortSlotTime (0x0401)
signal: -50.00 dBm
SSID: j
Supported rates: 1.0* 2.0* 5.5* 11.0* 6.0 9.0 12.0 18.0
DS Paramater set: channel 11
ERP: <no flags>
Extended supported rates: 24.0 36.0 48.0 54.0

Pavel reported that you can't set the SSID from "foo" to
"bar". I tried reproducing, but used different values,
with different lengths, and thus never saw the obvious
problem.

This variable is only used internally, _while_ connected.
If we use it, the sequence
# iwconfig wlan1 essid foo
<connects>
# iwconfig wlan1 essid ""
<disconnects>
# iwconfig
will still display "foo" as the SSID afterwards, which
is obviously quite bogus. Fix this by only displaying
the wext SSID, if present.

There's no reason to think that hwsim has any
actual signal strength, but for testing it is
very useful to have it report _some_ value to
the stack so I can see if the value ends up
being reported correctly

Instead of using the wext BSSID which may be NULL if
you haven't explicitly set one, we should instead use
the current_bss pointer -- if that's NULL we aren't
connected anyway. Fixes missing signal quality output

With the recent MLME rework I accidentally removed the connection
monitoring code. In order to add it back, this patch will add new
code to monitor both for beacon loss and for the connection actually
working, with possibly separate triggers.
When no unicast frames have been received from the AP for (currently)
two seconds, we will send the AP a probe request. Also, when we don't
see beacons from the AP for two seconds, we do the same (but those
times need not be the same due to the way the code is now written).
Additionally, clean up the parameters to the ieee80211_set_disassoc()
function that I need here, those are all useless except sdata.

We have, sometimes, multiple things that want to
run but don't have their own timer. Introduce a
new function to mac80211's mlme run_again() that
makes sure that the timer will run again at the
_first_ needed time, use that function and also
properly reprogram the timer once it fired.

We need to provide a reasonable minimum that will result in a
working setup if used. Set minimum to be 10 to provide for
4 standard TX queues + 1 command queue + 2 (unused) HCCA queues +
4 HT queues (one per AC).
We allow the user to change the number of queues used via a module
parameter and use this minimum value to check if it is valid. Without
this patch a user can select a value for the number of queues that
will result in a failing setup.

debugfs files are created with 644 permissions which gives everybody

This reworks the key operation in cfg80211, and now only
allows, from userspace, configuring keys (via nl80211)
after the connection has been established (in managed
mode), the IBSS been joined (in IBSS mode), at any time
(in AP[_VLAN] modes) or never for all the other modes.
In order to do shared key authentication correctly, it
is now possible to give a WEP key to the AUTH command.
To configure static WEP keys, these are given to the
CONNECT or IBSS_JOIN command directly, for a userspace
SME it is assumed it will configure it properly after
the connection has been established.
Since mac80211 used to check the default key in IBSS
mode to see whether or not the network is protected,
it needs an update in that area, as well as an update
to make use of the WEP key passed to auth() for shared
key authentication.

We will soon want to nest key attributes into
some new attribute for configuring static WEP
keys at connect() and ibss_join() time, so we
need nested attributes for that. However, key
attributes right now are 'global'. This patch
thus introduces new nested attributes for the
key settings and functions for parsing them.
