In a near future, the upper layer won't be aware of the tx queues.
This allows to remove one place where the upper layer needed to
provide the tx queue index to the transport layer.
This also saves around 1.5MB.

the mapping tx_queue -> fifo is really transport related. The upper
layer should be involved in such things.
Note that upon agg_disable, the queue is always mapped to fifo 0, but
this doesn't matter since when the queue will be setup again for a
new BA session, it will be configured to the good fifo anyway.

This removes the need for iwl_tx_info.
Each tx queue holds an array of skbs, the transport layer doesn't
need to know anything about the context in which a specific skb is
sent.

When we remove the module, we free all the tx and rx resources.
Before doing that, we'd better stop the tx / rx activity. Calling
iwl_trans_stop_device in iwl_remove helps also to remove a few API
functions:
* rx_free: happens in iwl_trans_free
* tx_free: happens in iwl_trans_free
* disable_sync_irq: happens in iwl_trans_stop_device

Now that the reclaim flow has been moved to the transport layer, a lot of

The reclaim flow is really transport related. Define a simple API to allow the
upper layer to request from the transport layer to reclaim packets until an
index written in the Tx response / BA notification.
The transport layer prepares a list of the packets that are being freed and
passes this list to the upper layer.
Between the two layers, the CB of the skb is used to pass a pointer to the
context (BSS / PAN) in which the skb was sent.

Since the ISR is entirely in the transport layer, its data should be in the pcie
specific region.
Change sync_irq to first disable and then synchronize the IRQ.
iwl_isr and iwl_isr_ict now receive iwl_trans.

Remove iwl_transport_register which was a W/A. The bus layer knows what
transport to use. So now, the bus layer gives the upper layer a pointer to the
iwl_trans_ops struct that it wants to use. The upper layer then, allocates the
desired transport layer using iwl_trans_ops->alloc function.
As a result of this, priv->trans, no longer exists, priv holds a pointer to
iwl_shared, which holds a pointer to iwl_trans. This required to change all the
calls to the transport layer from upper layer. While we were at it, trans_X
inlines have been renamed to iwl_trans_X to avoid confusions, which of course
required to rename the functions inside the transport layer because of
conflicts in names. So the static API functions inside the transport layer
implementation have been renamed to iwl_trans_pcie_X.
Until now, the IRQ / Tasklet were initialized in iwl_transport_layer. This is
confusing since the registration doesn't mean to request IRQ, so I added a
handler for that.
