Subject: [PATCH] ipw2200: change default policies for auto-associate, auto-create, and auto-roaming

We now have applications available to set policy. This patch changes the driver defaults to:

1) associate=0 - do not automatically associate to an SSID.
2) auto_create=0 - do not automatically create an ad-hoc network
3) roaming=0 - do not automatically roam to another AP with the same SSID.
