TX power limits as defined in the OTP assume the worst case scenario
in terms of the platform's atenna gain, but most platforms are below
that value so they can use more TX power without passing the regulatory
limit. If the platform indicates in the BIOS that it indeed has lower
gain, and the geographic location allows it, higher TX power can be
used. The driver reads the PPAG (Per-Platform Antenna Gain) data from
BIOS (if it exists), validates it and sends the appropriate command to
the FW. This flow happens once at FW init, in case of suspend/resume
there is no need to read again from BIOS as we save those values during
init, so just send the PPAG command again to FW.

South Korea is adding a more strict SAR limit called "Limb SAR".
Currently, WGDS SAR offset group 3 is not used (not mapped to any country).
In order to be able to comply with South Korea new restriction:
- OEM will use WGDS SAR offset group 3 to South Korea limitation.
- OEM will change WGDS revision to 1 (currently latest revision is 0)
to notify that Korea Limb SAR applied.
- Driver will read the WGDS table and pass the values to FW (as usual)
- Driver will pass to FW an indication that Korea Limb SAR is applied
in case table revision is 1.

In low power modes, the chip clock source for platform integrated
devices is 32kHz. It is generated internally and supplied by a crystal
oscillator. However using a 32kHz sourced from crystal oscillator
has high power penalty.
There is an option to get an external 32kHz clock from the platform. Past
experience shows that the reliability is platform dependent,
i.e. on some platforms it works good and on other it doesn’t.
Working from external clock will save 0.5 mW in sleep state, from overall
1.8mW that we have today, i.e. almost 30%.
Each OEM can enable or disable the use of the external 32kHz clock by
setting a BIOS configuration. In case the OEM configured to use 32kHz
external clock the driver will pass this indication to the FW.

Update iwl_beacon_filter_cmd to support
BEACON_FILTER_CONFIG_API_S_VER_4.
Currently driver configs them to be zero
(i.e. disable them, so no change is applied).

The ACPI table size definitions were spread around the different files
that used them. Move them all to a common place.

Apart from DVM, all firmware uses the same base API, and there's
code outside iwlmvm that needs to interact with it. Reflect this
in the source better and reorganize the firmware API to a new
fw/api/ directory.
While at it, split the already pretty large fw-api.h file into a
number of smaller files, going from almost 3k lines in there to
a maximum number of lines less than 1k.
