this is a missing feature and the lqi values of the
ieee802154_rx_irqsafe function is currently garabage.

The idea to implement such use case is like in wireless a:

"iw dev wlan# station dump"

in our tool

"iwpan dev wpan node dump"

which reports all received neighbor nodes by extended/short address and
their lqi, rssi value.

This is a opentask entry at [0].

The list of neighbors is stored so far I know as rhashtable in kernel
(that's how wireless it does and we should use the same just with
802.15.4 functionality).
