Instead of always calling ieee80211_beacon_loss() on every missed
beacons notification, call this function only if the number of
consecutive missed beacons from last rx is higher than a predefined
threshold.

The AC / fifo mapping was wrong - BE packets landed in VO
FIFO. The iwl_mvm_tx_fifo enumeration isn't in the same
order as ieee80211_ac_numbers enumeration.
Since the firmware relies on fifo / ac mapping - this led
to wrong behavior. E.g. the firmware sends beacon with the
same QoS parameters as VO, and it actually took the
parameters of BK. There are probably more severe issues.

The HT protection flags have been a mess for a long time,
this patch fixes all this.
The proper source of information for this is the
protection in the HT operation mode IE which is
propagated to bss_conf by mac80211.
1) No need to set the HT protection flags when the link
doesn't support HT.
2) We need to set the TGG protection when ERP is active.

At the firmware level, IBSS support has similar programming
requirements as AP/GO support, so use the same functions with
just small differences.
With IBSS only a single virtual interface can be used, so no
changes in the advertised interface combinations are needed.
For now, don't use hardware crypto for the GTKs in IBSS mode,
the firmware should support it though.

Until now, after WoWLAN, we weren't able to keep the
connection to the AP because the firmware didn't give
us the right information. Since the firmware API has
been changed to include all the information we need,
change the driver to work with the new API (if it is
available) and program all the relevant information
in mac80211 to keep the connection.

In case that an AP/GO interface is started while there is a
station/P2P client associated, need to make sure that the AP/GO
beacon time is far enough from the station's one in oder to allow
the station to receive the DTIM beacons and the following traffic
etc.
To resolve this, when the AP is started, check if there is an
active station interface, and guarantee that the AP/GO TBTT is far
enough from the station one.

The AP mode needs to use the MCAST fifo for the MCAST
frames sent after the DTIM. This fifo needs to be
configured with the same parameters as the VOICE FIFO.
A separate SCD queue is mapped to this fifo - the cab_queue
(cab stands for Content After Beacon). This queue isn't
connected to any station, but rather to the MAC context.
This queue should (and is already) be set as the MCAST
queue - this is part of the of MAC context command.

When modifying a MAC, we update its beacon system time which
is taken as a base to calculate TBTT. The firmware doesn't use
the new timestamp because the time is never used after the MAC
and broadcast station were added, but it is safer to not rely
on this and avoids the overhead of reading the register every
time the MAC is updated.

still start the association process and set the MAC in
the firmware to associated only after having received a
beacon with DTIM period by reacting to the new change
flag (BSS_CHANGED_DTIM_PERIOD) from mac80211.
This reduces the association time in these cases.
