cfg80211/mac80211: allow action frame TX/RX in IBSS
When in IBSS mode, currently action frame TX and RX cannot be used. Allow using it to talk to any peer, or for public action frames. Also, while at it, restructure the code in mac80211 to make it easier to add this for other interface types in the future.
