[wpan-tools,0/7] IEEE 802.15.4 passive scan support

Hello,

This series follows the work done in the Linux kernel stack: now that
the core knows about the different netlink commands and attributes in
order to support passive scan requests from end-to-end, here are the
userspace changes to be able to use it.

Here is a list of the new available features.

* Passively sending (or stopping) beacons. So far only intervals ranging
  from 0 to 14 are valid. Bigger values would request the PAN
  coordinator to answer to BEACONS_REQ (active scans), this is not
  supported yet.
  # iwpan dev wpan0 beacons send interval 2
  # iwpan dev wpan0 beacons stop

* Scanning all the channels or only a subset:
  # iwpan dev wpan1 scan type passive duration 3

* If a beacon is received during this operation the internal PAN list is
  updated and can be dumped or flushed with:
  # iwpan dev wpan1 pans dump
  PAN 0xffff (on wpan1)
	coordinator 0x2efefdd4cdbf9330
	page 0
	channel 13
	superframe spec. 0xcf22
	LQI 0
	seen 7156ms ago
  # iwpan dev wpan1 pans flush

* It is also possible to monitor the events with:
  # iwpan event

* As well as triggering a non blocking scan:
  # iwpan dev wpan1 scan trigger type passive duration 3
  # iwpan dev wpan1 scan done
  # iwpan dev wpan1 scan abort

Cheers,
Miquèl
