mac802154: Handle basic beaconing
Implement the core hooks in order to provide the softMAC layer support for sending beacons. Coordinators may be requested to send beacons in a beacon enabled PAN in order for the other devices around to self discover the available PANs automatically. Changing the channels is prohibited while a beacon operation is ongoing. The implementation uses a workqueue triggered at a certain interval depending on the symbol duration for the current channel and the interval order provided. Sending beacons in response to a BEACON_REQ frame (ie. answering active scans) is not yet supported. This initial patchset has no security support (llsec).
