This patch adds an utility function to mac80211 for conversion between
ieee80211_tx_rate (mac80211.h) and rate_info (cfg80211.h).
struct ieee80211_tx_rate is space limited to annotate rates up to IEEE
802.11ac. The new struct rate_info is able to annotate IEEE 802.11ax
rates and beyond. Several drivers internally still use ieee80211_tx_rate
but mac80211 expects rate_info in struct ieee80211_rate_status. This
struct is in turn required to allow, e.g., tx-power status report or
dynamic number of mrr stages.
