When sending the association request, pay attention to the
legacy rates configured by the user, and do not advertise support
for any that are not configured.

This makes the assoc request packet look more correct when
making modern hardware act like a /b mode station, for instance.

This is what I meant by "playing whack-a-mole" :)

Next you'll have to fix TDLS too, etc. I feel that overall this is too
complex and we need to address this at a lower level, to actually get
the capabilities that all the code already looks at into the restricted
state you need for this kind of testing.
