This patch updates mesh EID values, some of which where conflicting with
already-approved 11h EIDs (pointed out by Tomas Winkler). I wanted to use the
values suggested in the last available 802.11 draft (2.0) but it assigns 50 to
MESH_CONFIG, the same value than EXT_SUPP_RATES. Using the values proposed in
the draft incremented by one.
