There's some upcoming work to add new chipset support here and I'd
like to only add 802.11n support to one driver, instead of both
urtwn and rtwn.
There's also missing support for things like 802.11n, some powersave
work, bluetooth integration/coexistence, etc, and also newer parts
(like 8192EU, maybe some 11ac parts, not sure yet.)
So, this is hopefully the first step in a longer set of steps to unify
rtwn/urtwn and extend it with more interesting chipset and functionality
support.

The fullmac firmware doesn't seem to populate a useful rssi indicator
in the RX descriptor, so if one plotted said values, they'd basically
look like garbage.
The reference driver implements a "get current rssi" firmware command
which I guess is really meant for station operation only (as hostap
operation would need rssi per station, not a single firmware read.)
So:
* populate sc_currssi during each calibration run;
* use this in the RX path instead of trying to reconstruct the RSSI
value and passing it around as a pointer;
* do up a quick hack to map the rssi hardware value to some useful
signal level;
* the survey results provide an RSSI value between 0..100, so just
do another quick hack to map it into some usefulish signal level;
* supply a faked noise floor - I haven't yet found how to pull it
out of the firmware.
The scan results and the station RSSI information is now more useful
for indicating signal strength / distance.
This logic is mostly crimed from the reference driver and the linux
r92su driver.
I verified that it (a) worked on the rsu hardware I have, and (b)
did traffic testing whilst watching what ath(4) sent as a hostap.
It successfully sent MCS8..15 rates (which requires 2-stream reception)
as well as MCS0..7 (which is 1-stream.)
Tested:
* RTL8712, 1T1R NIC, MCS rates 0..7.
* RTL8712, 1T2R NIC, MCS rates 0..15
TODO:
* Find a 2T2R NIC!
* include opt_wlan.h like a good little wlan driver;
* add a function to free the mbufq /and/ the node references on it, or we will leak
said node references;
* free the mbufq upon NIC shutdown otherwise we may end up with a full list that
we never begin transmit work on, and thus never drain it;
* .. which frees it upon NIC detach too;
* ensure urtwn_start() gets called after the completion of frame TX even if the
pending queue is empty, otherwise transmit will stall. It's highly unlikely that
the usb tx queue would be empty whilst the incoming send queue is full, but hey,
who knows.
This passes some iperf testing with and without the NIC being actively removed during
said active iperf test.

* urtwn0: MAC/BB RTL8188EU, RF 6052 1T1R ; STA mode
