{nl,mac}80211: add dot11MeshConnectedToMeshGate to meshconf
When userspace is controlling mesh routing, it may have better knowledge about whether a mesh STA is connected to a mesh gate than the kernel mpath table. Add dot11MeshConnectedToMeshGate to the mesh config so that such applications can explicitly signal that a mesh STA is connected to a gate, which will then be advertised in the beacon.
