When the supplicant is connected and performs a scan, it doesn't enter
WPA_SCANNING state for various reasons. However, external programs
still need to know that the supplicant is scanning since they may not
wish to perform certain operations during a scan (as those operations
will likely fail or yield incorrect results). Add a 'scanning' property
and signal to the supplicant dbus interface to allow clients to
synchronize better with the supplicant when it scans.

I've exported the methods wpsPbc, wpsReg and wpsPin (patch attached),
so wpa_supplicant should be able to connect with WPS using the dbus
interface. I couldn't test it well because the problem seems to be in
my wireless card, a Broadcom BCM4328. At least it seems to do the same
using both interfaces. With ndiswrapper driver the "wpsie" entry
(thanks Dan!) didn't appear, and with the Broadcom wl driver it
appears but I cannot associate using WPS.
Add a new DBus method "setDebugParams" which takes the parameters
debug_level, debug_timestamp and show_keys as input and updates the
internal debug variables accordingly.
To change the debug level, enable/disable timestamps and enable/disable
show_keys the following dbus-send command can be used:
dbus-send --system --dest=fi.epitest.hostap.WPASupplicant --print-reply
/fi/epitest/hostap/WPASupplicant fi.epitest.hostap.WPASupplicant.setDebugParams
int32:0 boolean:false boolean:false

wpa_supplicant can now initialize hostapd data structures when mode=2 is
used to set up an AP. The hostapd configuration is not yet set based on
wpa_supplicant network configuration block. In addition, the glue code
for hostapd driver_ops needs number of functions that will be needed for
AP functionality.
wpa_supplicant should not send a dbus reply as response to a method call
if no reply was requested by the caller. Sending a reply even if not
requested is basically no problem but triggers dbus warnings like the
one below.

The wps_cred_process option can be used to configure wpa_supplicant to
send received Credential attributes for external processing over
ctrl_iface and dbus. This allows external programs to update their
configuration when WPS is used to provision new networks.
