Before this patch, STA's would set new width of 160/80+80 Mhz based on AP capability only.
This is wrong because STA may not support > 80Mhz BW.
Fix is to verify STA has 160/80+80 Mhz capability before increasing its width to > 80Mhz.

The "support_80_80" and "support_160" setting is based on:
"Table 9-272 — Setting of the Supported Channel Width Set subfield and Extended NSS BW
Support subfield at a STA transmitting the VHT Capabilities Information field"
From "Draft P802.11REVmd_D3.0.pdf"

Oh, good catch.

But I think this is possibly wrong, we might have VHT capa overrides?

Anyway, I've applied this as a fix now - we can fix it more later.
