so far so good, but I did notice some issues.
1) BSS are now wrongly identified as ad-hoc. Seems there is a mixup.
2) The Signal property of a BSS needs to be int16_t (n) since the dBm
values can be negative.
3) For some reason the new debug properties don't work in d-feet.
4) The extra dict properties got added to InterfaceRemoved signal.

Marcel
