Migrate the power-save functions to be overridable VAP methods.
This turns ieee80211_node_pwrsave(), ieee80211_sta_pwrsave() and
ieee80211_recv_pspoll() into methods.
The intent is to let drivers override these and tie into the power save
management pathway.
For ath(4), this is the beginning of forcing a node software queue to
stop and start as needed, as well as supporting "leaking" single frames
from the software queue to the hardware.
Right now, ieee80211_recv_pspoll() will attempt to transmit a single frame
to the hardware (whether it be a data frame on the power-save queue or
a NULL data frame) but the driver may have hardware/software queued frames
queued up. This initial work is an attempt at providing the hooks required
to implement correct behaviour.
Allowing ieee80211_node_pwrsave() to be overridden allows the ath(4)
driver to pause and unpause the entire software queue for a given node.
It doesn't make sense to transmit anything whilst the node is asleep.
Please note that there are other corner cases to correctly handle -
specifically, setting the MORE data bit correctly on frames to a station,
as well as keeping the TIM updated. Those particular issues can be
addressed later.
