Staging: wlan-ng: refactor p80211wext.c to reduce text size.
Refactor the wext interface to reduce lines of code & module text size.
- add a helper function p80211wext_getmib
- rename p80211wext_dorequest to p80211wext_setmib
- refactor wext to call the get/set mib helpers and so reduce repeated code.

Tested on x86_32 laptop, everything works correctly using NetworkManager,
and iwconfig & iwlist return sensible results when reading from the card.
