This patch add Atheros (vendor specific) information element parsing support
for 802.11 management frames (beacons, etc.). Parse Atheros Advanced Capability
and Atheros eXtended Range information elements.
I've used latest madwifi trunk (rev 4136) for reference (file
net80211/ieee80211.h) and wireless packet generation.
Capture files which demonstrates parser features:
atheros-ie-beacon-norm.pcap.gz - no Atheros IE (for reference);
atheros-ie-beacon-turbo.pcap.gz - turbo support enable (AdvCap IE);
atheros-ie-beacon-burst.pcap.gz - bursting support enable (AdvCap IE);
atheros-ie-beacon-ff.pcap.gz - fast frame support enable (AdvCap IE);
atheros-ie-beacon-xr.pcap.gz - eXtended Range enabled (AdvCap & XR IE);
atheros-ie-beacon-turbo-ff-burst.pcap.gz - turbo && ff && burst at the same
time (AdvCap IE).
Patch was tested with fuzz-test.sh:
$ ./tools/fuzz-test.sh /tmp/wireshark-atheros-ie/atheros-ie-beacon-*.pcap
