The FT-over-DS test was allowed to fail as it stood. If FT-over-DS
failed it would just do a normal over-Air transition which satisfied
all the checks. To prevent this Authenticate frames are blocked after
the initial connection so if FT-over-DS fails there is no other way
to roam.
With the addition of connect_bssid/roam very few tests actually
require hwsim. Since hwsim can lead to problems with scan results
its best to have it off by default and have each test that needs
it explicitly turn it on.
Tests which previously turned it off have had that option removed.
Tests that do require hwsim still are vulnerable to scan result
problems, so for these tests beacon_int was added to the hostapd
config which seems to help with reliability somewhat.
