    mac80211, hostapd: always explicitly set beacon interval
    
    One of the latest mac80211 updates added sanity checks, requiring the
    beacon intervals of all VIFs of the same radio to match. This often broke
    AP+11s setups, as these modes use different default intervals, at least in
    some configurations (observed on ath9k).
    
    Instead of relying on driver or hostapd defaults, change the scripts to
    always explicitly set the beacon interval, defaulting to 100. This also
    applies the beacon interval to 11s interfaces, which had been forgotten
    before. VIF-specific beacon_int setting is removed from hostapd.sh.
    
    Fixes FS#619.
