Hello, freebsd-wireless.

  hostapd and wpa_supplicat have support for many compile-time
options, most of which are disabled (not enabled) by FreeBSD build
system. 802.11w, 802.11r and WPS support are most notable ones.

  Is it intentional, or ``by chance''? Does these features support by
 FreeBSD 802.11 stack (and does special support from drivers needed
 for them), and these options could be enabled, or they needed more
 kernel-side code?
