iwlwifi: properly set basic rates
This fixes a long-standing bug: iwlwifi always assumes that the CCK ACK rates are 1 and 2 MBps and the OFDM ACK rates are 6, 12 and 24 MBps. Fix this problem by using the basic rates the AP (or in AP case hostapd) told us to use and add the necessary mandatory rates to the mix.
