Macos seems to be able to capture raw ieee80211 WPA2/CCMP traffic and decrypt
the frame if the capturing device is one of the communication partners. It does
also leave the protected bit on and the IV in.
The existing decryption options do not offer a useful value, as there are lots
of other still encrypted frames in the bigger capture file (not included).
