This adds support for parsing the VHT IE, which allows a BSS supporting
VHT (80211ac) to be ranked higher than a BSS supporting only HT/basic
rates. Now, with basic/HT/VHT parsing we can calculate the theoretical
maximum data rate for all three and rank the BSS based on that.
This adds HT IE parsing and data rate calculation for HT (80211n)
rates. Now, a BSS supporting HT rates will be ranked higher than
a basic rate BSS, assuming the RSSI is at an acceptable level.
The spec dictates RSSI thresholds for different modulation schemes, which
correlate to different data rates. Until now were were ranking a BSS with
only looking at its advertised data rate, which may not even be possible
if the RSSI does not meet the threshold.
Now, RSSI is taken into consideration and the data rate returned from
parsing (Ext) Supported Rates IE(s) will reflect that.
All over the place we do "ie[1] + 2" for getting the IE length. It
is much clearer to use a macro to do this. The macro also checks
for NULL, and returns zero in this case.
To prepare for FT over SAE, several case/if statements needed to include
IE_RSN_AKM_SUITE_FT_OVER_SAE. Also a new macro was introduced to remove
duplicate if statement code checking for both FT_OVER_SAE and SAE AKM's.
Parse the contents of the GTK and IGTK subelements in an FT IE instead
of working with buffers containing the whole subelement. Some more
validation of the subelement contents. Drop support for GTK / IGTK when
building the FTE (unused).
Currently it supports Microsoft vendor specific information element
with version and type value 1 only. Typically it contains WPA security
related information.
