mac80211: add function to create data frame template including key
For some TDLS channel switch implementations data frames need to be sent by the firmware based on a template. This template should be created by mac80211, and thus needs to properly be built from an 802.3 frame into an 802.11 frame. In addition, the device will need the key information so the select_key handler needs to be run. However, the driver/device will be responsible for all of the crypto encapsulation, as the sequence numbers etc. cannot be built by the host anyway in this case since it's a template to be used multiple times.
