This is copied from network.c that uses a static table to lookup
exponential decay values by index (generated from 1/pow(n, 0.3)).
network.c uses this for network ranking but it can be useful for
BSS ranking as well if you need to apply some exponential backoff
to a value.

I changed '>' to '>=' to avoid overflow.  All 8 patches have been applied, thanks.
