nl80211: remove radar information
The wiphy information is getting very close to being too much for a typical netlink dump message and adding the radar attributes to channels and interface combinations can push it over the limit, which means userspace gets no information whatsoever. Therefore, remove these again for now, no driver actually supports radar detection anyway and a modified userspace is required as well. We're working on a solution that will allow userspace to request splitting the information across multiple netlink messages, which will allow us to add this back.
