mac802154: Handle basic beaconing



Implement the core hooks in order to provide the softMAC layer support
for sending beacons. Coordinators may be requested to send beacons in a
beacon enabled PAN in order for the other devices around to self
discover the available PANs automatically.

Changing the channels is prohibited while a beacon operation is
ongoing.

The implementation uses a workqueue triggered at a certain interval
depending on the symbol duration for the current channel and the
interval order provided.

Sending beacons in response to a BEACON_REQ frame (ie. answering active
scans) is not yet supported.

This initial patchset has no security support (llsec).
