nl80211: Change max TX power to be in mBm instead of dBm
In order to be consistent with NL80211_ATTR_POWER_RULE_MAX_EIRP, change NL80211_FREQUENCY_ATTR_MAX_TX_POWER to use mBm and U32 instead of dBm and U8. This is a userspace interface change, but the previous version had not yet been pushed upstream and there are no userspace programs using this yet, so there is justification to get this change in as long as it goes in before the previous version gets out.
