When setting wpa_auth to WPA_AUTH_NONE(1) in AP mode with WEP security,
firmware will set privacy bit and add WPA OUI in VENDOR IE in beacon and
probe response. The security type in softAP beacons confuse the
supplicant in client side, and the user client will see [WPA-?] in
supplicant scan result. So we set WPA_AUTH_DISABLED in softAP mode with
OPEN security.

The title is now duplicated, it's now in Subject and in the body, but I
can fix that.
