[RFC/RFT 3/5] mac80211: introduce a new scan state "decision"

[Helmut Schaa <helmut.schaa@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Introduce a new scan state "decision" which is entered after
every completed scan operation and decides about the next steps.
At first the decision is in any case to scan the next channel.
This shouldn't introduce any functional changes.
