32c02261dd Add support for configuring scheduled scan plans
Add the option to configure scheduled scan plans in the config file.
Each scan plan specifies the interval between scans and the number
of scan iterations. The last plan will run infinitely and thus
specifies only the interval between scan iterations.

usage:
sched_scan_plans=<interval:iterations> <interval2:iterations2> ... <interval>

4115303bbe Document wpa_s->scan_req
Use an enum with documented values to make it easier to understand how
wpa_s->scan_req is used.

992189991c Start autoscan for first connection attempt
Use wpa_supplicant_set_state() to initialize state to DISCONNECT so that
autoscan gets initialized properly. This needs a change in
autoscan_init() to avoid extra scan request that would postpone the
first scan request when an interface is added.

e3659c89d2 Add a simple periodic autoscan module
This module will sets a fixed scanning interval. Thus, the parameter to
this module is following this format: <fixed interval>

c0fba2b38d Add autoscan module named exponential
This module will compute the interval on a base exponential. Thus,
params to this module are following this format: <base>:<limit>

7c865c6853 Add automatic scanning support
Like bgscan, autoscan is an optional module based feature to automate
scanning but while disconnected or inactive.

Instead of requesting directly a scan, it only sets the scan_interval
and the sched_scan_interval. So, if the driver supports sched_scan,
autoscan will be able to tweak its interval. Otherwise, the tweaked
scan_interval will be used. If scan parameters needs to be tweaked, an
autoscan_params pointer in wpa_s will provide those. So req_scan /
req_sched_scan will not set the scan parameters as they usually do, but
instead will use this pointer.

Modules will not have to request a scan directly, like bgscan does.
Instead, it will need to return the interval it wants after each
notification.
