This is over-complicating things. Why is the wifi daemon a special
configuration option? Just have wpa_supplicant in the default PACKAGECONFIG,
and people who want to use iwd can set PACKAGECONFIG.

+PACKAGECONFIG[iwd] = "--enable-iwd,--disable-iwd,,,iwd"
This definitely should be RDEPENDS.
Note that if wpa_supplicant and iwd are mutually exclusive, you can express
that in the PACKAGECONFIG:

From the comment " For smooth operation it would be best to start only
one wireless daemon at a time." I gathered that both can be enabled at once.
If we had --disable-wifi in PACKAGECONFIG[iwd] or
PACKAGECONFIG[wpa_supplicant], we would be forced to have both or none
since it would be part of the PACKAGECONFIG_CONFARGS if one is disabled.
If support for both at once is not supported by connman, then the wifi
PACKAGECONFIG is unnecessary indeed.
Cheers,
Quentin
