By default, set BE tx queue TXOP limit to 2.0 in the hostapd config
Many vendor drivers are doing similar things to boost throughput.
On MT7612 under ideal conditions, it improves tx throughput from 470 Mbit/s
to about 570 Mbit/s.

Close cooperation with Lorenzo Bianconi resulted
in these patches which fix all remaining seen issues
when using dynack.
Fix link losses when:
- Late Ack's are not seen or not present
- switching from too low static coverage class to dynack on a live link
These are fixed by setting the Ack Timeout/Slottime to
the max possible value for the currently used channel width when
a new station has been discovered.
When traffic flows, dynack is able to adjust to optimal values
within a few packets received (typically < 1 second)
These changes have been thoroughly tested on ~60 offshore devices
all interconnected using mesh over IBSS and dynack enabled on all.
Distances between devices varied from <100m up to ~35km

b43legacy needs ssb support and we do not compile the mips74 subtarget
of the brcm47xx target with SSB support. This causes a build failure in
the mac80211 package and only some of the kernel modules are being
created.
I am not aware of any device with a BRCM47xx mips74 CPU which uses a
b43legacy compatible device.

Most of the txpower for the ath10k firmware is stored as twicepower (0.5 dB
steps). This isn't the case for max_antenna_gain - which is still expected
by the firmware as dB.
The firmware is converting it from dB to the internal (twicepower)
representation when it calculates the limits of a channel. This can be seen
in tpc_stats when configuring "12" as max_antenna_gain. Instead of the
expected 12 (6 dB), the tpc_stats shows 24 (12 dB).
Tested on QCA9888 and IPQ4019 with firmware 10.4-3.5.3-00057.

ieee80211w support is only activated in hostapd when at least one
capable driver is build into the image. Many drivers which are capable
of ieee80211 (MFP) and have the MFP_CAPABLE set in the driver are still
missing the DRIVER_11W_SUPPORT dependency. Add this to more driver

Add support for Multi-AP to the UCI configuration. Every wifi-iface gets
an option 'multi_ap'. For APs, its value can be 0 (multi-AP support
disabled), 1 (backhaul AP), 2 (fronthaul AP), or 3 (fronthaul + backhaul
AP). For STAs, it can be 0 (not a backhaul STA) or 1 (backhaul STA, can
only associate with backhaul AP).
Also add new optional parameter to wps_start ubus call of
wpa_supplicant to indicate that a Multi-AP backhaul link is required.
