nwam_wlan_select() needs to provide the security mode of the selected WLAN.
While we can derive the security mode for visible APs via the scan results, we
can't derive it in the case of a hidden AP selection, so the solution is for
API consumers to:

1) for visible APs, derive the security mode from the scan results and pass it
in
2) for hidden APs, ask the user to specify security mode

This also suggests an additional need for the known WLAN to store the security
mode so that when the user makes a hidden AP selection they can specify
security mode once and this value is then stored in the known WLAN entry
persistently to prevent them having to enter it again. Need an additional
"security-mode" property for this.
