Since 5efea30f03 we can possibly lose a state transition which can
cause trouble further down the road.
The reproducer from 643d6dce6c can trigger these for example.
Drivers for firmware based wireless cards have worked around some of
this (and other) problems in the past.
Add an array of tasks rather than a single one as we would simply
get npending > 1 and lose order with other tasks. Try to keep state
changes updated as queued in case we end up with more than one at a
time. While this is not ideal either (call it a hack) it will sort
the problem for now.
We will queue in ieee80211_new_state_locked() and do checks there
and dequeue in ieee80211_newstate_cb().
If we still overrun the (currently) 8 slots we will drop the state
change rather than overwrite the last one.
When dequeing we will update iv_nstate and keep it around for historic
reasons for the moment.
The longer term we should make the callers of
ieee80211_new_state[_locked]() actually use the returned errors
and act appropriately but that will touch a lot more places and
drivers (possibly incl. changed behaviour for ioctls).
rtwn(4) and rum(4) should probably be revisted and net80211 internals
removed (for rum(4) at least the current logic still seems prone to
races).

This reverts commit b65f813c1a.
As a side effect this also seems to fix wtap which seems to have
lost the epoch over the input path in between.

Both rwlwifi in Linux and rtwn in OpenBSD restore this register,

According to information found on the internet the following products
use exactly the same hardware but probably different USB IDs:
- Edimax EW-7811Un V2 (v2)
- Edimax EW-7811GLN 2.0A (v2)
I am not adding them as I cannot verify.

While IEEE80211_R_BAND was defined, there was no place to store the
band. Add a field for that, adjust ieee80211_lookup_channel_rxstatus()
to require it, and update drivers passing "R_{FREQ|IEEE}" in already to
provide the band as well. For the moment keep the fall-back code
requiring all three fields.

ni_txseqs is kept as 16-bit counter, but we need to trim the upper four
bits as they may have special meanings for the firmware / hardware.
For instance, bit 15 enables hardware / firmware generation of sequence
numbers that overrides sequence numbers programmed by the driver.

Rather than placing the epoch around the entire receive loop which
might call into rtwn_rx_frame() and USB and sleep, split the loop
into two[1] and leave us with one unlock/lock cycle as well.

For ieee80211_add_channel+*() we are passing in an int flag for
ht40 and in some cases another int flag for vht80 where we'd only
need two bits really.
Convert these variables to a bitflag and fold them together into one.
This also allows for VHT160 and VHT80P80 and whatever may come to
be considered. Define the various options currently needed.
Change the drivers (rtwn and rsu) which actually set this bit to non-0.
For convenience the "1" currently used for HT40 is preserved.
Enahnce getflags_5ghz() to handle the full set of VHT flags based
on the input flags from the the driver.
Update the regdomain implementation as well to make use of the new
flags and deal with higher [V]HT bandwidths.
ieee80211_add_channel() specifically did not take flags so it will
not support naything beyond 20Mhz channels.
Note: I am not entirely happy with the "cbw_flag[s]" name, but we
do use chan_flags elsewhere already.

Make sure all occurrences of ieee80211_input_xxx() in sys/dev are
covered by a network epoch section. Do not depend on the interrupt
handler nor any taskqueues being in a network epoch section.

- Alignment issues:
* Add missing __packed attributes + padding across all drivers; in
most places there was an assumption that padding will be always
minimally suitable; in few places - e.g., in urtw(4) / rtwn(4) -
padding was just missing.
* Add __aligned(8) attribute for all Rx radiotap headers since they can
contain 64-bit TSF timestamp; it cannot appear in Tx radiotap headers, so
just drop the attribute here. Refresh ieee80211_radiotap(9) man page
accordingly.
- Since net80211 automatically updates channel frequency / flags in
ieee80211_radiotap_chan_change() drop duplicate setup for these fields
in drivers.
Tested with Netgear WG111 v3 (urtw(4)), STA mode.

- Fix data frames transmission via POWER_STATUS register setup -
it seems to be set by MACID_CONFIG firmware command, which was broken*
in r290439 and later disabled in r307529.
We can re-enable it later if / when firmware rate adaptation will be
ready; however, this step will be required anyway - for firmware-less
builds.
- Force RTS / CTS protection frame rate to CCK1 (this rate works fine
without any additional setup; no better workaround is known yet).
The problem was not observed on the channel 1 or with CCK1 rate enforced
('ifconfig wlan0 ucastrate 1' for 11 b/g; not possible for 11n networks
due to ifconfig(8) bug).
* I'm not sure if it works before r290439 because - AFAIR - I never seen
firmware rate adaptation working for 10-STABLE urtwn(4)
(It needs EN_BCN bit set and RSSI updates at least).

Rate tables have this bit set to indicate minimal set of basic rates;
however, it overlappes with MCS bit, so rate2ridx() will treat them as
