Summary

Factor out ieee80211_probereq_ie() and ieee80211_probereq_ie_len()
and make the length dynamic rather than static max. The latter is
needed as out current fixed length was longer than some "hw scan",
e.g. that of ath10k, will take. This way we can pass what we have.
Should this not be sufficient in the future we might have to deal
with filtering and much more error handling.

This also removes a duplicate calculation for ieee80211_ie_wpa [1].

No longer exporting _len(); seems we do not need that publicly.
Add a bool option to alloc the ie space which we may need for
other uses (such as LinuxKPI).
Cleanup.

This looks good to me.

sys/net80211/ieee80211_output.c
2448

I'm not a huge fan of #ifdef notyet but this looks reasonable here.

2516–2517

Minor point: if it was #if 0 before and it's #ifdef notyet now ... maybe it should just go away for the time being? It can be brought back with the other 11ac work.
