A recent kernel change led to all EAPOL frames being encrypted rather than
just those for the group handshake. This is due to transmit processing in
the kernel now using the proper interface which would encrypt those frames
with the group key because hostapd wasn't requesting that they not be
encrypted. This changes the nl80211 driver to not request encryption unless
the EAPOL frame should be encrypted.

Move the use of 802.11 header protocol field into driver_hostap.c since
this is a Host AP driver specific mechanism and other driver wrappers
should not really need to know about it.
This new cfg80211 command is used for setting CTS protect, short preamble,
and short slot time parameters for the BSS. The matching kernel change has
been submitted, but is not yet included in wireless-testing. The code here
used #ifdef to avoid compilation failures before the new command is
available.
Added code to use suggested nl80211/cfg80211 API for setting MFP related
parameters. This is disabled by default since the API changes has not yet
been approved. The new commands can be enabled by defining
NL80211_MFP_PENDING (this will be removed once the API changes is
approved).
linux/wireless.h ends up including number of Linux kernel header files and
many of the definitions are conflicting with (or at least duplicating)
definitions in net/if.h.
