Some extended capabilities (I'm currently interested in "Operating Mode
Notification" for VHT) are implemented by the kernel driver and exported
in nl80211. Use these in hostapd/wpa_supplicant.

The new -G<group> command line argument can now be used to set the group
for the control interfaces to enable cases where hostapd is used without
a configuration file and the controlling program is not running with
root user privileges.

If the control interface is enabled, allow hostapd to be started
without any configuration files specific on the command line since
the interfaces can be added dynamically.

These function pointers are going to be the same for each interface so
there is no need to keep them in struct hostapd_iface. Moving them to
struct hapd_interfaces makes it easier to add interfaces at run time.

Commit 0dcc4dc4b3 made driver
initialization conditional on interface name being configured. This can
break hostapd-as-RADIUS-server use case where this parameter does not
really make any sense. Fix this with a special case for the none driver.

This avoids allocating global driver state for driver wrappers that
are built in but not used. This can save some resources and avoids
failures with driver_nl80211.c that is now initializing netlink
connections for nl80211 in global_init().
This can be used to avoid rejection of first two 4-way handshakes every
time hostapd (or wpa_supplicant in AP/IBSS mode) is restarted. A new
command line parameter, -e, can now be used to specify an entropy file
that will be used to maintain the needed state.
Set all the interfaces.iface pointers to NULL after the allocation of
that memory block for cases those pointers are accessed during each of
the interfaces initialization process (hostapd_interface_init()). One
example for such case is during WPS initialization when the code tries
to fetch the uuid from each of the interfaces.

This allows the interface name to be automatically
added to log file lines by the core logging logic.

This allows the driver interface to be deinitialized before
struct hostapd_data instance gets freed. This needs to be done so
that the driver wrapper does not maintain a context pointer to
freed memory.
Doxygen and some build tools may get a bit confused about same file
name being used in different directories. Clean this up a bit by
renaming some of the duplicated file names in src/ap.
This code can be shared by both hostapd and wpa_supplicant and this
is an initial step in getting the generic code moved to be under the
src directories. Couple of generic files still remain under the
hostapd directory due to direct dependencies to files there. Once the
dependencies have been removed, they will also be moved to the src/ap
directory to allow wpa_supplicant to be built without requiring anything
from the hostapd directory.
config.c includes now only the generic helper functions that are needed
both for hostapd and the AP mode operations in wpa_supplicant.
hostapd/config_file.c is only needed for hostapd.
In addition, start ordering header file includes to be in more
consistent order: system header files, src/utils, src/*, same
directory as the *.c file.
Instead of getting this via hostapd.h, include it as the first
non-system header file in all source code files in the same way as
used in all other files.
This makes it clearer which files are including header from src/common.
Some of these cases should probably be cleaned up in the future not to
do that.
In addition, src/common/nl80211_copy.h and wireless_copy.h were moved
into src/drivers since they are only used by driver wrappers and do not
need to live in src/common.
