wpa_supplicant: Handle HT40 and mode downgrade in AP mode

Add some missing pieces to the interface configuration of AP/mesh mode
in wpa_supplicant.
 - check for secondary channel and HT40 capability
 - try to downgrade to IEEE 802.11b if 802.11g is not available
Especially with the HT40 check, this code now performs all settings,
which the deleted/duplicated mesh code did.
