hostapd: Update to version 2.8 (2019-04-21)
This also syncs the configuration files with the default configuration files, but no extra options are activated or deactivated. The mesh patches were partially merged into hostapd 2.8, the remaining patches were extracted from patchwork and are now applied by OpenWrt. The patches still have open questions which are not fixed by the author. They were taken from this page: https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/hostap/list/?series=62725&state=* The changes in 007-mesh-apply-channel-attributes-before-running-Mesh.patch where first applied to hostapd, but later reverted in hostapd commit 3e949655ccc5 because they caused memory leaks.

+Date: Mon, 27 Aug 2018 14:28:48 -0700
+Subject: [PATCH 6/7] mesh: don't allow pri/sec channel switch
-We don't want mesh to switch the channel from primary to secondary,
-since mesh points are not able to join each other in that case.
+This limitation isn't backed by standard, but it is known that
+mesh doesn't have capability to handle 20/40 coex change in
+current implementation and it will not able to establish
+PLINK when channel switch between primary and secondary happens.
+
+Since it's unknown when we will have the implementation of handling
+20/40 coex change for mesh, it'd better to avoid them from happening
+until standard based implementation is introduced.
