[PATCH] hw_features: Fix check of supported 802.11ac channel width

The two channel width bits in the VHT capability field can be decoded in
following values (IEEE 802.11ac-2013 8.4.2.160.2 VHT Capabilities Info
field):
* 0: no 160 or 80+80 MHz support
* 1: 160 MHz support
* 2: 160 and 80+80 MHz support
* 3: (reserved)
The check must therefore not be done bitwise but instead it must checked
whether the capabilities announced by the driver are at least the ones
requested by the user.
Fixes: c781eb842852 ("hostapd: Verify VHT capabilities are supported by driver")
