[PATCH 1/4] hostapd: add config option for dfs channels

[Simon Wunderlich]

From: Simon Wunderlich <siwu at hrz.tu-chemnitz.de>

Different channels allow different transmission power, at least in ETSI
countries. Also, ETSI requires a "channel plan" for DFS operation, and
channels should be randomly choosen from these channels.

Add a channel list configuration option for users to add channels
hostapd may pick from.
