Add IEEE80211_API_VERSION macro so that drivers are able to check it
during compile time. This feature is useful to make backward IEEE80211
compatibilities for wireless drivers.

Per my other mail, what exactly has changed and must be checked? The
SIOCGIWFREQ stuff?

The prototype of ieee80211_tx_frame() changed. It used to have 3
parameters. Now it has 5.
