Some buggy APs (and even P2P_GO) don't advertise their

In such case, use the min supported rate as the
basic rate.

I seem to vaguely remember discussing using mandatory rates, did we?

Also this seems like a last resort fallback, I'd really also try using the probe response information -- we should have that information still at this point. But maybe that doesn't make sense -- fix the APs instead!

I'd really like a (debug?) message here though. This is a stupid AP, and I will need to know if I'm debugging some throughput issues etc.
