In certain testing scenarios we'd like to force a decision
between STBC/BFER/SISO. In the normal scenario this decision
is done by the FW. Enable this option vis debugfs.

VHT Beamformer (BFER) will be used if the peer supports it
and there's a benefit to use it vs. STBC or SISO.
The driver now tells the FW whether BFER and/or STBC are
allowed but the FW will make the decision to use either
or stick to SISO on its own.
BFER is limited to a single remote peer. The driver takes
care of ensuring this to the FW and prioritizes with which
peer BFER will be used.

The new API tells the FW that it's allowed to use STBC
but the FW will decide on its own whether to use STBC
or SISO (and in the future Beamformer).
Keep support for the old API which sets STBC explicitly
in the rates in the LQ table while we still support old
FW revisions.

The fw recently added an option to set tx power reduction
per station (in the lq_cmd command), and get the tx power
reduction used (in the tx_resp struct).
Use them and propogate this value up to mac80211's tx
response (in order to use it later in the rate-scaling
algorithm).

This will allow to get sniffer captures with correct
settings for these HT / VHT capabilities.
Also set the corresponding HAVE_MCS / VHT_KNOWN bits in
the registration to mac80211.

Add more bit field definitions used in LQ flags.
Also rename the first bit to a shorter name.

VHT introduces MCS8 and MCS9. Update the expected tpt tables
to include these. Previous expected values for 20/40 MHz
are incorrect in certain cases so fix these as well.

Newer firmware revisions have a completely new
firmware API. This is the new driver for this
new API.
I've listed the people who directly contributed
code, but many others from various teams have
contributed in other ways.
