Include Extended Capabilities element based on scan results

Browse source 
Add Extended Capabilities element to association request only if the AP
included this element in Beacon/Probe Response frames. This is a
workaround to address interoperability issues with some older APs that
do not seem to be able to handle Extended Capabilities element in
(Re)Association Request frames.
