Yogesh Ashok Powar 83c78da983 mwifiex: add support to configure VHT for AP mode
Currently, default VHT configuration from the firmware is used
for the VHT operations. Adding vhtcfg command to configure the
firmware based on input received from cfg.

Enable VHT for AP mode only when cfg80211_ap_settings has a
VHT IE i.e., when ieee80211ac is set to 1 in the hostapd.conf.

Yogesh Ashok Powar a5f390562a mwifiex: add 802.11AC support
For STA mode, collect VHT realated IEs from the Beacons or Probe
Responses and append similar VHT related IEs to association
requests.

For AP mode, get VHT related capability information and share it
with cfg80211 at the time of wiphy register. This information is
further used by cfg80211 and hostapd to start an AP with 802.11AC
support.

Currently only 8897 supports 802.11AC.
