This adds a helper method, which determines if the current platform
supports WPA3 or not.
WPA3 is supported if
- the device is not in the featureset category "tiny"
- the WiFi driver supports 802.11w management frame protection
The gluon-wireless-encryption package selects a WPA3 supporting
hostapd package as a dependency and stores the information, which
encryption method is supported to the device.
This package adds support for SAE on 802.11s mesh connections.
Enabling this package will require all 802.11s mesh connections
to be encrypted using the SAE key agreement scheme. The security
of SAE relies upon the authentication through a shared secret.
In the context of public mesh networks a shared secret is an
obvious oxymoron. Still this functionality provides an improvement
over unencrypted mesh connections in that it protects against a
passive attacker who did not observe the key agreement. In addition
Management Frame Protection (802.11w) gets automatically enabled on
mesh interfaces to prevent protocol-level deauthentication attacks.
If `wifi.mesh.sae` is enabled a shared secret will automatically be
derived from the `prefix6` variable. This is as secure as it gets
for a public mesh network.
For *private* mesh networks `wifi.mesh.sae_passphrase` should be
set to your shared secret.
Fixes#1636
Remove a lot of redundant code by switching to a match table listing
the targets and boards for each candidate for the primary MAC interface.
In addition, we add some flexiblity by allow to switch out the sysfs file
data source for the MAC address.

I accidentally pushed these commits as I had them lying around on a
dirty checkout I did testing on.
In addition this PR contains:
- split of gluon-respondd provider into multiple source files
- minor additional cleanups in gluon-mesh-babel respondd provider
(untested, as the babel respondd provider already doesn't compile prior
to these changes...)
many AVM devices do not have RESET/WPS buttons. So use the otherwise unused DECT/PHONE button to boot the device into setup mode.
This patch allows to enter the setup-mode by pressing the phone button
(often labeled as DECT) in addition to WPS and reset button.
This patch is necessary to allow supporting boards without a WPS and reset
button (e.g. AVM FRITZ!Box 7312).
