Hauke Mehrtens 8af79550e6 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%):
