Pass the rate selection table to mac80211 from minstrel_ht_update_stats.
Only rates for sample attempts are set in info->control.rates.

Both minstrel versions use individual ways to scale up integer values
to perform calculations. Merge minstrel_ht's scaling macros into
minstrels header file and use them in both minstrel versions.

If a rate is below the max_tp_rate, sample it frequently if:
- it is above max_tp_rate2, or
- it is above max_prob_rate and is a candidate for max_prob_rate
(has fewer streams than max_tp_rate).
This helps the retry chain recover more quickly from bad statistics
caused by collisions or interference, and slightly reduces throughput
fluctuations with higher rates.

When MCS rates start to get bad in 2.4 GHz because of long range or
strong interference, CCK rates can be a lot more robust.
This patch adds a pseudo MCS group containing CCK rates (long preamble
in the lower 4 slots, short preamble in the upper slots).
