Convert net80211 over to using if_transmit for the dispatch from the
upper layer(s). This eliminates the if_snd queue from net80211. Yay! This unfortunately has a few side effects: * It breaks ALTQ to net80211 for now - sorry everyone, but fixing parallelism and eliminating the if_snd queue is more important than supporting this broken traffic scheduling model. :-) * There's no VAP and IC flush methods just yet - I think I'll add some NULL methods for now just as placeholders. * It reduces throughput a little because now net80211 will drop packets rather than buffer them if the driver doesn't do its own buffering. This will be addressed in the future as I implement per-node software queues. Tested: * ath(4) and iwn(4) in STA operation
