Ben Greear b23b025fe2 mac80211: Optimize scans on current operating channel.
This should decrease un-necessary flushes, on/off channel work,
and channel changes in cases where the only scanned channel is
the current operating channel.

* Removes SCAN_OFF_CHANNEL flag, uses SDATA_STATE_OFFCHANNEL
  and is-scanning flags instead.

* Add helper method to determine if we are currently configured
  for the operating channel.

* Do no blindly go off/on channel in work.c  Instead, only call
  appropriate on/off code when we really need to change channels.
  Always enable offchannel-ps mode when starting work,
  and disable it when we are done.

* Consolidate ieee80211_offchannel_stop_station and
  ieee80211_offchannel_stop_beaconing, call it
  ieee80211_offchannel_stop_vifs instead.

* Accept non-beacon frames when scanning on operating channel.

* Scan state machine optimized to minimize on/off channel
  transitions.  Also, when going on-channel, go ahead and
  re-enable beaconing.  We're going to be there for 200ms,
  so seems like some useful beaconing could happen.
  Always enable offchannel-ps mode when starting software
  scan, and disable it when we are done.

* Grab local->mtx earlier in __ieee80211_scan_completed_finish
  so that we are protected when calling hw_config(), etc.

* Pass probe-responses up the stack if scanning on local
  channel, so that mlme can take a look.
