wpa_supplicant: Handle systems without INET (legacy IP) support
Currently, wpa_supplicant fails when legacy IP support is disabled
in FreeBSD (i.e., the world built with WITHOUT_INET and nooptions
INET in the kernel config). The proposed patch allows running
wpa_supplicant and connecting to wireless networks without INET
support when INET6 is available.

It looks like we really only invoke interface ('i' group) ioctls on this
socket, is there any particular reason we didn't just use a PF_LOCAL
socket? It'd be less complex and match what ifconfig does for a lot of
its work.
Thanks,
Kyle Evans
