Initial mesh support: add Mesh Point to supported interfaces mask and allow hwsim to send beacons in mesh mode.

That'll do AP beacons, right? And it won't really help because all virtual stations see each other?

I think I'd prefer if you'd write it as

if (vif->type != NL80211... &&

    vif->type != NL80211....)
	return;

but ultimately, I don't think it matters much. That above just looks a little quirky, at least to me. :)
