nl80211: Add option to adjust transmit power
This patch adds transmit power setting type and transmit power level attributes to NL80211_CMD_SET_WIPHY in order to facilitate adjusting of the transmit power level of the device. The added attributes allow selection of automatic, limited or fixed transmit power level, with the level definable in signed mBm format.
