    wlan - Import initial full-offload scan support from FreeBSD.
    
    This is a very simple addition to the net80211 scan support.
    
    It doesn't implement a replacement scan interface - it just disables
    the pieces that we should disable to make this lifecycle a bit
    more managable.
    
    There's more work to come before full scan offload support is available
    but it should be good enough for driver work.
    
    * add a flag to say "full offload"
    * don't do probe requests when scanning full-offload - firmware can do that
    * don't do powersave transitions and buffering - firmware can do that
    * don't abort a background scan upon reception of a single packet.
      Full offload drivers don't need this behaviour - they do it in firmware.
    
    Taken-From: FreeBSD (svn r307602, r308007 and r308008)
