Reusing the configured retry counts from the skb cb is more efficient than

Replace ts_longretry (unused) with ts_final_retry which contains the retry

During normal operation, minstrel was showing suspicious EWMA probabilities
exceeding 100%. It looks like the tx status reporting in ath5k was not
properly clearing the rate index for rates which were never attempted.
This is caused by uninitialized stale data in the on-stack tx status
information, which is reused when more frames are received.
To fix this, rely on ts->ts_final_idx to select the last attempted rate,
instead of checking whether ts->ts_rate is set.
Additionally, the conversion from the driver rate index back to the
mac80211 rate index can be dropped, as the mac80211 tx status will still
have the original rate index which was used to set up the descriptor.
Additionally, one more inaccuracy was fixed - the final rate attempt
count only needs to be increased by one if the transmission attempt was
successful.

The return value of the tx operation is commonly
misused by drivers, leading to errors. All drivers
will drop frames if they fail to TX the frame, and
they must also properly manage the queues (if they
didn't, mac80211 would already warn).
Removing the ability for drivers to return a BUSY
value also allows significant cleanups of the TX
TX handling code in mac80211.
Note that this also fixes a bug in ath9k_htc, the
old "return -1" there was wrong.

The register definition for retry configuration on AR5212 was wrong, and simply
copied over from AR5210. Update the register definitions from the documentation.
Let the short and long retries be configured from mac80211 and use the standard
values of 7 and 4 by default. Also we need to make sure we don't export more
retries than we are configured for to mac80211 (and the rate module) in
hw->max_rate_tries.
Also clean up the code by removing unused defines and variables and drop the
different values for "station retries" - if these need to be different it can
be handled tru ah_retry_long/short.

This adds a few tracepoints to ath5k driver transmit and
receive callbacks in order to record packet traffic.
We record the entire packet in the trace buffer so that
the data can be extracted with trace-cmd and external
plugins.
Compared to the previous debugging calls, this approach
removes an out-of-line function call from the tx and rx
paths in the compiled-in-but-disabled case, while
improving the ability to process the logged data.
A new option, CONFIG_ATH5K_TRACER, is added so that one
may disable the tracepoints completely.

The old survey implementation was broken and returned nonsense data.
Clear cycle counters and survey data on reset. Since the cycle counters easily
overflow it's better to keep a local version of collected survey data (in ms
resolution, instead of clockrate) and update this every time survey is
retrieved. If survey is retrieved often enough to avoid cycle counter overflows
this works fine, otherwise we could update survey more often, like ath9k does.
Still only the survey for the current channel is kept.
