Comment (by mentor):
This patch removes automagic addition of a unit (wlanunit) number to
interface names, when a VAP is created in kernel. It also modifies
wlanconfig with a new option '-u' that stops automatic searches for the
lowest unit number for a base interface name. The searches are performed
using the Linux /proc interface.

This patch compiles but is not tested, as I'm not in the same country as
my madwifi machine, and it's my gateway so I can't fuck it up. So someone
else should pick this up and test for stupid segfaults all over the place.
