iwlwifi: check short GI support per-station rather than globally

Short guard interval support is a local per-station parameter not a global
per-NIC parameter.  (mac80211 will correctly remove SGI support from station
capabilities if the BSS does not permit it).  This patch removes the short GI
support bitfield from the global iwl_ht_info struct and properly uses
per-station HT capabilities during rate selection.

cfg80211: allow driver to override PS default

Sometimes drivers might have a good reason to override
the PS default, like iwlwifi right now where it affects
RX performance significantly at this point. This will
allow them to override the default, if desired, in a
way that users can still change it according to their
trade-off choices, not the driver's, like would happen

cfg80211: check for and abort dangling scan requests

If you trigger a scan request on an interface and then
take it down, or rmmod the module or unplug the device
the driver might "forget" to cancel the scan request.
That is a bug in the driver, but the current behaviour
is that we just hang endlessly waiting for the netdev
refcount to become 0 which it never will. To improve
robustness, check for this situation in cfg80211, warn
about it and clean up behind the driver. I don't just
clean up silently because it's likely that the driver
also has some internal state it has now leaked.

Additionally, this fixes a locking bug, clearing the
scan_req pointer should be done under the rdev lock.

Finally, we also need to _wait_ for the scan work and
not just abort it since it might be pending and wanting
to do a cleanup.

iwlwifi: automatically adjust sleep level

Depending on required latency requested by pm_qos (via mac80211)
we can automatically adjust the sleep state. Also, mac80211 has
a user-visible dynamic sleep feature where we are supposed to
stay awake after sending/receiving frames to better receive
response frames to our packets, this can be integrated into the
sleep command.

Currently, and this patch doesn't change that yet, we default
to using sleep level 1 if PS is enabled. With a module parameter
to iwlcore, automatic adjustment to changing network latency
requirements can be enabled -- this isn't yet the default due
to requiring more testing.

The goal is to enable automatic adjustment and then go into the
deepest possible sleep state possible depending on the networking
latency requirements.

This patch does, however, enable IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_DYNAMIC_PS
to avoid the double-timer (one in software and one in the device)
when transmitting -- the exact timeout may be ignored but that is
not of big concern.

Note also that we keep the hard-coded power indices around for
thermal throttling -- the specification of that calls for using
the specified power levels. Those can also be selected in debugfs

task thus times out as the alive response is not received while it is
