Subject: [PATCH 03/19] wpa_supplicant: handle HT40 and mode downgrade in AP
 mode

This patch adds some missing pieces to the interface configuration
of AP/mesh mode in wpa_supplicant.
 - check for secondary channel and HT40 capability
 - try to downgrade to 11b if 11g is not available
Especially with the HT40 check, this code now performs all settings,
which the deleted/duplicated mesh code did.
