mac80211: invoke the timer only with correct dot11MeshHWMPRootMode value

mesh_path_root_timer is invoked once the dot11MeshHWMPRootMode
is larger than 1. This patch also adds the backward compatible
to the previous setting on dot11MeshHWMPRootMode. If the user
configures as follow, it will still trigger the proactive RANN
with Gate Announcement.

iw mesh0 set mesh_param mesh_hwmp_rootmode 1
iw mesh0 set mesh_param mesh_gate_announcements 1

similar to the following setting:

iw mesh0 set mesh_param mesh_hwmp_rootmode 4
iw mesh0 set mesh_param mesh_gate_announcements 1
