Hauke Mehrtens 80b58a9db6 hostapd: Update to version 2.8 (2019-04-21)
This also syncs the configuration files with the default configuration
files, but no extra options are activated or deactivated.

The mesh patches were partially merged into hostapd 2.8, the remaining
patches were extracted from patchwork and are now applied by OpenWrt.
The patches still have open questions which are not fixed by the author.
They were taken from this page:
https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/hostap/list/?series=62725&state=*

The changes in 007-mesh-apply-channel-attributes-before-running-Mesh.patch
where first applied to hostapd, but later reverted in hostapd commit
3e949655ccc5 because they caused memory leaks.

The size of the ipkgs increase a bit (between 1.3% and 2.3%):

Subject: [PATCH 6/7] mesh: don't allow pri/sec channel switch
This limitation isn't backed by standard, but it is known that
mesh doesn't have capability to handle 20/40 coex change in
current implementation and it will not able to establish
PLINK when channel switch between primary and secondary happens.
Since it's unknown when we will have the implementation of handling
20/40 coex change for mesh, it'd better to avoid them from happening
until standard based implementation is introduced.
