Public bug reported:
NetworkManager should enable power save on wireless devices that support
it. This is done by the NL80211_CMD_SET_POWER_SAVE command.
Note; ideally powersave should not be enabled while doing an
association, since it can interfere (cause delays) in things like DHCP
requests/responses, etc. Best might be to enable it once the device is
fully activated, and remove it once we're in a disconnected state.
