wireless: support internal statically compiled regulatory database

This patch provides infrastructure for machine translation of the
regulatory rules database used by CRDA into a C data structure.
It includes code for searching that database as an alternative
to dynamic regulatory rules updates via CRDA.  Most people should
use CRDA instead of this infrastructure, but it provides a better
alternative than the WIRELESS_OLD_REGULATORY infrastructure (which
can now be removed).

Statically compiled regulatory database
---------------------------------------
In most situations the userland solution using CRDA as described
above is the preferred solution. However in some cases a set of
rules built into the kernel itself may be desirable. To account
for this situation, a configuration option has been provided
(i.e. CONFIG_CFG80211_INTERNAL_REGDB). With this option enabled,
the wireless database information contained in net/wireless/db.txt is
used to generate a data structure encoded in net/wireless/regdb.c.
That option also enables code in net/wireless/reg.c which queries
the data in regdb.c as an alternative to using CRDA.
The file net/wireless/db.txt should be kept up-to-date with the db.txt
file available in the git repository here:
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/linville/wireless-regdb.git
Again, most users in most situations should be using the CRDA package
provided with their distribution, and in most other situations users
should be building and using CRDA on their own rather than using
this option. If you are not absolutely sure that you should be using
CONFIG_CFG80211_INTERNAL_REGDB then _DO_NOT_USE_IT_.

This option generates an internal data structure representing
the wireless regulatory rules described in net/wireless/db.txt
and includes code to query that database. This is an alternative
to using CRDA for defining regulatory rules for the kernel.

# If you _really_ intend to use CONFIG_CFG80211_INTERNAL_REGDB then you will

# genregdb.awk -- generate regdb.c from db.txt
#
# Actually, it reads from stdin (presumed to be db.txt) and writes
# to stdout (presumed to be regdb.c), but close enough...
