cfg80211: mark ieee80211_hdrlen const

This function analyses only its single, value-passed
argument, and has no side effects. Thus it can be
const, which makes mac80211 smaller, for example:

   text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
 362518	  16720	    884	 380122	  5ccda	mac80211.ko (before)
 362358	  16720	    884	 379962	  5cc3a	mac80211.ko (after)

a 160 byte saving in text size, and an optimisation
because the function won't be called as often.
