[0/5] lib80211 cleanup

Prompted by Simon's review of the MAINTAINERS file and Kalle's
remark that lib80211.h wasn't covered, I decided to see why it
was even still there. Turns out that indeed it hasn't been used
for real (other than rtl8192e) since the removal of the hostap
driver last year, in commit d0172d5f7576 ("wifi: remove obsolete
hostap driver").

Therefore, now clean up lib80211 as well and move its remaining
code into libipw in the old Intel drivers.

Perhaps eventually those can also be removed at some point, but
I know recently there was at least one airplane that still flies
one of those in the onboard infotainment system ;-) (Undoubtedly
with an ancient kernel, so that doesn't _actually_ matter.)
