- Add support for Radio Resource Management from 802.11k. If supported by the
AP, allows the client to optimize its scanning strategy by obtaining the
channels of nearby APs that are part of the same ESS as the currently
connected AP. This requires the client to enable 'RM Enabled Capabilities'
element (section 8.4.2.47) appropriately, and send appropriately formatted
Action frames to request relevant reports from the AP. The reports from the
AP will be received via Management frames and contain multiple Neighbor
Report elements (8.4.2.39). Also examine how AP Channel Report element
(8.4.2.38) is used.

- IWD supports Radio Resource Management from 802.11k. In particular iwd
can request and utilize Neighbor Reports. When iwd determines that a roam
is required, iwd will try to obtain a Neighbor Report from the currently
connected AP (using a special Action frame). This enables iwd to optimize
the list of channels to scan in order to find a suitable target for roaming
much quicker.
