Wifi: Enable hotspot functionality with external Wifi donglereplicant-6.0
The Android wifi state machine checks if the propietary
firmware can be loaded, and uses that. Otherwise,
this patch makes it so it tries to enable the hostapd
daemon anyway, which, if you have a supported wifi
dongle connected, will enable the hotspot.
If no firmware and no wifi dongle is found, the wifi state machine
will cause the Android UI to say "Turning hotspost on..."
forever until the user turns it off, but obviously,
hotspot won't work.
