nl80211: Introduce scan flags to emphasize requested scan behavior
This commit defines new scan flags (LOW_SPAN, LOW_POWER, HIGH_LATENCY) to emphasize the requested scan behavior for the driver. These flags are optional and are mutually exclusive. The implementation of the respective functionality can be driver/hardware specific. These flags can be used to control the compromise between how long a scan takes, how much power it uses, and high accurate/complete the scan is in finding the BSSs.
