cfg80211: support ieee80211-freq-limit DT property

This patch adds a helper for reading that new property and applying
limitations of supported channels specified this way.
It is used with devices that normally support a wide wireless band but
in a given config are limited to some part of it (usually due to board
design). For example a dual-band chipset may be able to support one band
only because of used antennas.
It's also common that tri-band routers have separated radios for lower
and higher part of 5 GHz band and it may be impossible to say which is
which without a DT info.

/**
* wiphy_read_of_freq_limits - read frequency limits from device tree
*
* @wiphy: the wireless device to get extra limits for
*
* Some devices may have extra limitations specified in DT. This may be useful
* for chipsets that normally support more bands but are limited due to board
* design (e.g. by antennas or external power amplifier).
*
* This function reads info from DT and uses it to *modify* channels (disable
* unavailable ones). It's usually a *bad* idea to use it in drivers with
* shared channel data as DT limitations are device specific. You should make
* sure to call it only if channels in wiphy are copied and can be modified
* without affecting other devices.
*
* As this function access device node it has to be called after set_wiphy_dev.
* It also modifies channels so they have to be set first.
* If using this helper, call it before wiphy_register().
