Combine ath rate control modules with ath after bringing ath_hal
src into the tree. The old split was balanced on module dependencies
and symbol exposure that no longer exists. Users that want a module
setup with rate control algorithm other than sample must override
ATH_RATE in the ath module Makefile.

Rather than using hidden includes (with cicular dependencies),
directly include only the header files needed. This reduces the
unneeded spamming of various headers into lots of files.

For now, this leaves us with very few modules including vnet.h
and thus needing to depend on opt_route.h.

config files are almost backwards compatible; supplying

device ath_hal

gives you the same chip support that the binary hal did but you
must also include

options AH_SUPPORT_AR5416

to enable the extended format descriptors used by 11n parts.
It is now possible to control the chip support included in a
build by specifying exactly which chips are to be supported
in the config file; consult ath_hal(4) for information.

for newer hal's we need opt_ah.h as it specifies how the hal has been
configured and that in turn controls the descriptor layout
