We were setting all the rates bits when starting the AP role. Instead
of doing this, we should set only the rates we really support
(eg. MIMO rates or wide-channel rates). This commit changes that so
that we always use the default rates (basic rates + MCS0-7) and add
the values returned by the ap_get_mimo_wide_rate_mask operation.

If the wl18xx module is loaded with ht_mode=wide (the default), we
shouldn't use MIMO rates when the channel type is not HT40. Fix this
by checking the ht_mode before deciding which rates to used.
Additionally, set the ht_mode parameter explicitly to "wide" as the
default.
