    features/wifi: Add WiFi driver fragments for various vendors/interfaces

    This change adds WiFi driver configuration fragments. The fragments are
    split into vendor and interface files to allow for easy selection of
    drivers for specific interface types (USB, PCI, SDIO) which is useful
    for BSPs with specific interfaces. The specific vendor/interface config
    fragments can be included by specific BSPs in its .scc files.

    However .scc files (wifi-*.scc) are provided to allow enabling interface
    specific or all interfaces drivers via KERNEL_FEATURES or inclusion via
    other .scc files. And wifi-common.scc is provided to enable the base
    config options required for all WiFi drivers, which is done to ensure
    correct configuration for default no config setups (e.g.
    linux-yocto-tiny).

    This patch only enables a limited set of drivers, which is based on what
    the common-pc-wifi.cfg fragment sets as well as some additional drivers,
    that primarily appear in USB WiFi devices.

This gives us a much better granularity of drivers and a good baseline for
future improvements.

The 4.12 fragments are also slightly re-organized on top of this commit
to avoid patch failures when including the new frags.

QEMU Emulation Targets
======================

To simplify development, the build system supports building images to
work with the QEMU emulator in system emulation mode. Several architectures
are currently supported in 32 and 64 bit variants:

  * ARM (qemuarm + qemuarm64)
  * x86 (qemux86 + qemux86-64)
  * PowerPC (qemuppc only)
  * MIPS (qemumips + qemumips64)

Use of the QEMU images is covered in the Yocto Project Reference Manual.
The appropriate MACHINE variable value corresponding to the target is given
in brackets.
