Log message:
Make net80211 expose reasons for association failures to userland and have
ifconfig display them in 'scan' output and on the ieee80211 status line if
the failure is applicable to an already selected AP (e.g. wrong WPA key).

This will hopefully reduce the amount of help requests for what often
turn out to be trivial misconfiguration issues that were previously
hard to diagnose without debug mode.

ifconfig must be recompiled with the new ieee80211_ioctl.h to stay in
sync with the kernel. A full 'make build' will do the right thing!

Very helpful input by mpi@ and deraadt@
