Patchset I - Add central regulatory domain agent

This is patchset I of II which adds a central regulatory domain
agent onto the wireless subsystem. I've split it into two patchsets in order
to introduce the agent before affecting mac80211 drivers. This allows work
to continue on the central reg agent independant of mac80211
advancements.

Patch series I adds the central regulatory domain agent and
integrates it with cfg80211. The central reg agent consists of 2
main modules:

* ISO3166-1
* Regdomains

Additionally, changing regulatory domains can be acomplished through
the use of a new configfs module which will be introduced for
the wireless subsystem.

Patch series II will add support for the centreal reglatory agent
onto mac80211, remove mac80211's simple regulatory control and and 
replace each driver's own regulatory domain implementation with the
central one.

  Luis
