Add some optional callbacks for link add/remove so that drivers can react here. Initially, I thought it would be sufficient to just create the link in start_ap etc., but it turns out that's not so simple, since there are quite a few callbacks that can be called: if they're erroneously without start_ap, things might crash. Thus it might be easier for drivers to allocate all the necessary data structures immediately, to not have to worry about it in each callback, since cfg80211 checks that the link ID is valid (has been added.)

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
