This commit allows SAE Authentication for NL80211_CMD_CONNECT
interface, provided this is supported by the host driver.
Now this is interesting - there could potentially be a case where you
request SAE, but don't set NL80211_ATTR_EXTERNAL_AUTH_SUPP[ORT], and
then SAE *isn't* supported, right?

What happens then? Do we expect the driver to reject it? Better at
least document the expected behaviour...
