We can not extend channel, if regulatory disallow to use some
nearby channels or disallow HT at all.

So it's not possible that for particular channel that we can extend it
to let say -160|0+ and -0|160+, but can not extend it to -40|120+. So
we do not need zilion flags, but just specify left and right borders,
inside which we can extend channel.

For example: channel 36 (5180 MHz) is prohibited and all channels
above are allowed. For channel 52 (5260 MHz) left border will be
-60 and right border +160 (max). That will allow to support
VHT160: -60|100+, -40|120+, -20|140+, -0|160+ ;
VHT80: -60|20+, -40|40+, -20|60+, -0|80+ ;
HT40 :-40|0+, -0|40+
