[PATCH 2/2] iw: Allow basic rates to be configured when joining mesh

[Ashok Nagarajan <ashok@cozybit.com>]

This patch adds option to configure basic rates during mesh join. basic-rates
has to be passed along with "freq" attribute. For instance:

iw $MESH_IFACE mesh join mymeshid freq 2437 basic-rates 5.5,11
