We use the TLV flags as a handshake between the firmware
and the driver. These flags allow the firmware to advertise
its capabilities and API version.
Since we are running short of bits, we add a new
infrastructure which is more scalable, yet backward
compatible.
We make now the difference between API changes and the
capabilities. Both can have an index which allows to scale
at will.

This patch adds a cipher scheme support to extend a set of
the supported ciphers. The driver reads a cipher scheme list TLV
from FW image and passes it to mac80211 on hw registration.
After the cipher schemes are registered the driver handles key
installation and Tx/Rx calls related to the new ciphers.

Support Signed firmware based on code signing system (CSS)
protocol and dual CPUs download,
the code recognize if there are more than one CPU and
if we need to operate the signed protocol according to

We've never released firmware using the alternatives
mechanism and our build process makes that difficult
anyway. This means that in every file we have ever
built (except maybe by hand for testing) the listed
alternative was 0. Make the alternative field in the
TLVs part of the TLV number (thus expanding that to
32 bits); this gives us more TLV numbers (not really
needed) and more importantly protects against rogue
firmware files that actually do use the alternatives
mechanism -- those will now be rejected since they
don't contain any valid TLVs.
