wifi: mac80211: add internal handler for wake_tx_queue

Start to align the TX handling to only use internal TX queues (iTXQs):

Provide a handler for drivers not having a custom wake_tx_queue
callback and update the documentation.

* DOC: mac80211 software tx queueing
*
* mac80211 provides an optional intermediate queueing implementation designed
* to allow the driver to keep hardware queues short and provide some fairness
* between different stations/interfaces.
* In this model, the driver pulls data frames from the mac80211 queue instead
* of letting mac80211 push them via drv_tx().
* Other frames (e.g. control or management) are still pushed using drv_tx().
* mac80211 uses an intermediate queueing implementation, designed to allow the
* driver to keep hardware queues short and to provide some fairness between
* different stations/interfaces.
*
* Drivers indicate that they use this model by implementing the .wake_tx_queue
* driver operation.
* Drivers must provide the .wake_tx_queue driver operation by either
* linking it to ieee80211_handle_wake_tx_queue() or implementing a custom
* handler.
*
* Intermediate queues (struct ieee80211_txq) are kept per-sta per-tid, with
* another per-sta for non-data/non-mgmt and bufferable management frames, and
