This value was parsed out, but then nowhere used ... except in
some debugfs output. I can't imagine anyone wanting to use this
value for anything real (as no other driver exports it), so
bye-bye.
Along this, made the columns of
/sys/kernel/debug/libertas_wireless/*/getscantable align again.

Some functions where declared in header files, but used only once. They are
now static functions.
After doing this, I found out that some functions weren't used at all. I
removed this dead code.

Remove unused/duplicated fields and consolidate static data rate arrays,
for example the libertas_supported_rates[] and datarates[] arrays in
the bss_descriptor structure, and the libertas_supported_rates field
in the wlan_adapter structure.
Introduce libertas_fw_index_to_data_rate and libertas_data_rate_to_fw_index
functions and use them everywhere firmware requires a rate index rather
than a rate array.
The firmware requires the 4 basic rates to have the MSB set, but most
other stuff doesn't, like WEXT and mesh ioctls. Therefore, only set the MSB
on basic rates when pushing rate arrays to firmware instead of doing a ton
of (rate & 0x7f) everywhere.

With this patch, scanning with mshX interface will only return mesh networks. To
differentiate them, a specific mesh IE in beacons/probe responses is used. This
IE has been introduced in firmware release 5.110.14. Note:
Even though there can be at most a single mesh per channel, this scan might
return several networks in the same channel.
If all nodes in a mesh network are associated to an AP, they won't produce
beacons/probe responses, thus the network will not be listed. This will be fixed
in future firmware releases.
Scan on ethX interface is not filtered, so it will list both mesh and non-mesh
networks.

Replace WLAN_802_11_SSID with direct 'ssid' and 'ssid_len' members
like ieee80211. In the process, remove private libertas_escape_essid
and depend on the ieee80211 implementation of escape_essid instead.

Previously if a fixed channel was specified along with an SSID,
the channel request would be ignored during the association
process. Instead, when searching for an adhoc or infrastructure
network to join, allow filtering results based on channel so
that the driver doesn't pick a BSS on a different channel than
requested.

Do not clear the scan list except under specific conditions, such as
when (a) user-requested, or (b) joining/starting an adhoc network.
Furthermore, only clear entries which match the SSID or BSSID of the
request, not the whole scan list.

- use a linked list for scan results
- age scan results
- pass bss_descriptors around instead of indexes into the scan table
- lock access to the scan results
- stop returning EAGAIN from SIOCGIWSCAN handler

The previous scan fix did not account for scan paths other than set_scan()
that need to do a full scan at once.
Add a "full_scan" parameter to wlan_scan_networks() to control such
behaviour.
