FWS is always queuing frames and using a worker for de-queueing,
this is not always efficient for all bus layer. For example SDIO
has an internal queue and worker making the queueing of FWS
unnecessary. Make it possible to bypass the worker if fws mode
is none using a bus interface configuration. For USB bus layer
this configuration is set true to have fws provide queueing
regardless the fws mode.

When a BSS provides both 2.4GHz and 5GHz bands, in many cases it
makes sense to choose 5GHz. Typically a 5GHz channel is less crowded
and has less interference and therefore its performance will be
better than a crowded 2.4 GHz channel. This patch configures
'join_pref' to induce firmware to preferably select 5GHz BSS.

There are two (related) issues with this.
One case, reported by Michal, is related to hostap: it unsets the
20/40 capability bit for stations that associate when it's in 20
MHz mode.
The other case, reported by Eyal, is that some APs like Netgear
R6300v2 and probably others based on the BCM4360 chipset can be
configured for doing VHT at 20Mhz. In this case the beacon has
a VHT IE but the HT cap indicates transmitter only support 20Mhz.
In both of these cases, we currently avoid VHT and use only HT
this means we can't use the highest rates (MCS8), so fixing this
leads to throughput improvements.
