It is possible for the driver to report EAPOL frame RX before
Authentication frame RX even if the frames arrived in the opposite
order. This can result in issues in cases where both IBSS peers initiate
Authentication frame exchange at about the same time and one of the
EAPOL sessions is started before processing Authentication frame seq=1
RX. Work around this by not re-initializing EAPOL state on
Authentication (SEQ=1) RX if own Authentication frame was transmitted
within last 500 ms.

This new control interface event message is used to indicate when
both 4-way handshakes have been completed with a new IBSS peer.

To better support the IBSS/RSN mechanism, wpa_supplicant has to be able
to detect a possible peer reboot and in this case it should start a new
EAPOL handshake.
To perform such reboot detection wpa_supplicant has to perform an Open
Authentication by sending an Authentication frame and then replying to
it. IF an Authentication frame is received when the key have already
been exchanged, wpa_supplicant understands that the peer has rebooted
and can reset its state machine.
Whenever a new peer is added to the IBSS wpa_supplicant will start the
Open Authentication and only after having accomplished it will start the
key exchange. If the driver does not support Authentication frame
exchange initiated from user space, this step is skipped to maintain
previous behavior (just go through EAPOL-Key frame processing).
The Open Authentication was partly supported by the Linux kernel but now
wpa_supplicant can register for Authentication frames, handle it in
userspace and so avoid any possible race condition.

Change the old design of running a single long living RSN IBSS
instance to keep a separate instance for each IBSS connection.
This fixes number of issues in getting keys set properly for
new connections and is in general quite a bit more correct
design.
The driver may get confused if we set the initial TX GTK before having
fully configured and connected to an IBSS, so better delay this
operation until the connection (join/start IBSS) has been completed.
This commit adds a new build option, CONFIG_IBSS_RSN=y, that can be used
to enable RSN support for IBSS. This links in RSN Authenticator code
from hostapd and adds code for managing per-peer information for IBSS. A
new wpa_cli command or driver event can be used to request RSN
authentication with an IBSS peer. New RSN Authenticator and Supplicant
will be allocated for each peer.
The basic state machine setup code is included in this commit, but the
state machines are not properly started yet. In addition, some of the
callback functions are not yet complete.
