in kbit/sec.

net80211: add valid VHT MCS combinations and helper functions

Not all NSS / MCS / channel bandwidth combinations are valid.

This will be important for rate control and transmit rate
setup (eg static management, unicast, multicast rates.)

This is based on 802.11-2020 Section 21.5 (Parameters for VHT-MCSs.)

sys: general adoption of SPDX licensing ID tags.

Mainly focus on files that use BSD 2-Clause license, however the tool I
was using misidentified many licenses so this was mostly a manual - error
prone - task.

The Software Package Data Exchange (SPDX) group provides a specification
to make it easier for automated tools to detect and summarize well known
opensource licenses. We are gradually adopting the specification, noting
that the tags are considered only advisory and do not, in any way,
superceed or replace the license texts.

No functional change intended.

net80211: drop some unused variables / local macros

Most of them left after some commits (r178354, r191544, r287197 etc.);
some were never used.

Implement basic 802.11n awareness in the PHY and AMRR rate control code.

Implement basic 802.11n awareness in the PHY and AMRR rate control code.

* Add 802.11n 2ghz and 5ghz tables, including legacy rates and up to
MCS23 rates (3x3.)

* Populate the rate code -> rate index lookup table with MCS _and_
normal rates, but _not_ the basic rate flag. Since the basic rate flag
is the same as the MCS flag, we can only use one.

* Introduce some accessor inlines that do PLCP and rate table lookup/access
and enforce that it doesn't set the basic rate bit. They're not
designed for MCS rates, so it will panic.

* Start converting drivers that use the rate table stuff to use the
accessor inlines and strip the basic flag.

* Teach AMRR about basic 11n - it's still as crap for MCS as it is
being used by iwn, so it's not a step _backwardS_.

* Convert iwn over to accept 11n MCS rates rather than 'translate' legacy
to MCS rates. It doesn't use a lookup table any longer; instead it's a
function which takes the current node (for HT parameters) and the
rate code, and returns the hardware PLCP code to use.

Tested:

* ath - it's a no-op, and it works that way
* iwn - both 11n and non-11n
