[ath_hal] Add get/set NAV functions

The NAV (network allocation vector) register reflects the current MAC
tracking of NAV - when it will stay quiet before transmitting.

Other devices transmit their frame durations in their 802.11 PHY headers
and all devices that hear a frame - even if it's one in an encoding
they don't understand - will understand the low bitrate PHY header that
includes the frame duration. So, they'll set NAV to this value so
they'll stay quiet until the transmit completes.

Anyway, sometimes the PHY NAV header is garbled and sometimes, notably
older broadcom devices, will fake a long NAV so they can get "cleaner" air
for local calibration. When this happens, the hardware will stay quiet
for quite some time and this can lead to missed/stuck beacons, or
(for Very Large Values) a MAC hang.

This code just adds the ability to get/set the NAV; the driver will
need to take care of using it during transmit hangs and beacon misses
to see if it's due to a trash looking NAV.

Return the correct HAL data type for HAL_DIAG_ANI_STATS.

I .. stupidly added code to return HAL_ANI_STATS to HAL_DIAG_ANI_STATS.
I discovered this in a noisy environment when the returned values were
enough to .. well, make everything terrible.

So - restore functionality.

Tested:

* AR5416 (uses the AR5212 HAL), in a /very/ noisy 2GHz environment.
Enough to trigger ANI to get upset and generate useful data.

Use the HAL API for returning ar5212AniState, rather than just dumping
AniState itself.

Start the process of migrating the ANI statistics out of the HALs and into
the top-level HAL.

Start the process of migrating the ANI statistics out of the HALs and into
the top-level HAL.

The athstats program is blindly using a copy of the ar5212 ANI stats structure
to pull out ANI statistics/state and this is problematic for the AR9300
HAL.

So:

* Define HAL_ANI_STATS and HAL_ANI_STATE
* Use HAL_ANI_STATS inside the AR5212 HAL

This commit doesn't (yet) convert the ar5212AniState -> HAL_ANI_STATE when
exporting it to userland; that'll come in the next commit.

Move the HAL channel survey support out to be in the top-level HAL,
rathe than private in each HAL module.

Whilst here, modify ath_hal_private to always have the per-channel
noisefloor stats, rather than conditionally. This just makes
life easier in general (no strange ABI differences between different
HAL compile options.)

Add a couple of methods (clear/reset, add) rather than using
hand-rolled versions of things.

Add channel survey support to the AR5212 HAL.

The AR5212 series of MACs implement the same channel counters as the
later 11n chips - except, of course, the 11n specific counter (extension
channel busy.)

This allows users of these NICs to use 'athsurvey' to see how busy their
current channel is.

Tested:

* AR5212, AR2413 NICs, STA mode

Begin adding support to explicitly set the current chainmask.

Right now the only way to set the chainmask is to set the hardware
configured chainmask through capabilities. This is fine for forcing
the chainmask to be something other than what the hardware is capable
of (eg to reduce TX/RX to one connected antenna) but it does change what
the HAL hardware chainmask configuration is.

For operational mode changes, it (may?) make sense to separately control
the TX/RX chainmask.

Right now it's done as part of ar5416_reset.c - ar5416UpdateChainMasks()
calculates which TX/RX chainmasks to enable based on the operating mode.
(1 for legacy and whatever is supported for 11n operation.) But doing
this in the HAL is suboptimal - the driver needs to know the currently
configured chainmask in order to correctly enable things for each
TX descriptor. This is currently done by overriding the chainmask
config in the ar5416 TX routines but this has to disappear - the AR9300
HAL support requires the driver to dynamically set the TX chainmask based
on the TX power and TX rate in order to meet mini-PCIe slot power
requirements.

So:

* Introduce a new HAL method to set the operational chainmask variables;
* Introduce null methods for the previous generation chipsets;
* Add new driver state to record the current chainmask separate from
the hardware configured chainmask.

Part #2 of this will involve disabling ar5416UpdateChainMasks() and moving
it into the driver; as well as properly programming the TX chainmask
based on the currently configured HAL chainmask.

Tested:

* AR5416, STA mode - both legacy (11a/11bg) and 11n rates - verified
that AR_SELFGEN_MASK (the chainmask used for self-generated frames like
ACKs and RTSes) is correct, as well as the TX descriptor contents is
correct.
