New wpa_supplicant package take 1

While working on my own stuff i found there was no wpa_supplicant package.
This patch adds the wpa_supplicant package (latest stable version - 0.5.11).
I'm calling it "take 1" since EAP is included by default, though making it an
option would make for a messy config & mk file since there are lots of options
in there. Also there's no possibility to enable/disable drivers, the default
ones are enabled (wired, wext, hostap & atmel). Someone may be interested in
enabling one of the others - i have no way of testing them.
Installing the different binaries is optional for wpa_cli and wpa_passphrase,
obviously wpa_supplicant is always installed otherwise there would be no point
in this ;-)
And the TLS implementation can be openssl (smaller binary but requires openssl,
if it's already included it's a win) or internal (bigger binary, not so well
tested, doesn't need openssl though so it may be a size win in some scenarios).
Tested with linux wext driver with a zd1211rw on arm.
Enjoy.
