rt2800usb: add timer to handle TX_STA_FIFO

TX status is reported by the hardware when a packet has been
sent (or after TX failed after possible retries), which is some
time after the DMA completion.  Since the rt2800usb hardware can
not signal interrupts we have to use a timer, otherwise the
TX status would only be read by the next packet's TX DMA
completion, or by the watchdog thread.
