AQL does not take into account that most HT/VHT/HE traffic is A-MPDU aggregated.
Because of that, the per-packet airtime overhead is vastly overestimated.
Improve it by assuming an average aggregation length of 16 for non-legacy
traffic if not using the VO AC queue.
This should improve performance with high data rates, especially with multiple
stations

This code was copied from mt76 and inherited an off by one bug from
there. The > should be >= so that we don't read one element beyond
the end of the array.

Felix recently added code to calculate airtime of packets to the mt76
driver. Import this into mac80211 so we can use it for airtime queue limit
calculations.
The airtime.c file is copied verbatim from the mt76 driver, and adjusted to
be usable in mac80211. This involves:
- Switching to mac80211 data structures.
- Adding support for 160 MHz channels and HE mode.
- Moving the symbol and duration calculations around a bit to avoid
rounding with the higher rates and longer symbol times used for HE rates.
The per-rate TX rate calculation is also split out to its own function so
it can be used directly for the AQL calculations later.
