Setting up WiFi at Laboratory B using ansible-openwrt

Before this commit, we do not add a `type` to the wifi-device(s) we
create from scratch; we hope that they'd be available and already set
to `mac80211`.
For example, if we do not have a section in `/etc/config/wireless` for
the phy at sysfs path `ffe09000.pcie...`, creating one with Ansible
with this inventory variable:
```yaml
- name: radio1
path: ffe09000.pcie/pci9000:00/9000:00:00.0/9000:01:00.0
template: ath9k_2
channel: 6
```
would give us
```/etc/config/wireless
config wifi-device 'radio1'
option htmode 'HT20'
option band '2g'
option channel '6'
option country 'US'
option disabled '0'
option path 'ffe09000.pcie/pci9000:00/9000:00:00.0/9000:01:00.0'
```
... and not:
```/etc/config/wireless
config wifi-device 'radio1'
option type 'mac80211'
option htmode 'HT20'
option band '2g'
option channel '6'
option country 'US'
option disabled '0'
option path 'ffe09000.pcie/pci9000:00/9000:00:00.0/9000:01:00.0'
```
Force the section as mac80211. This has no support for non-mac80211,
cfg80211-only drivers -- that's fine, as we only see (in practice)
ath9k, ath10k, ath11k and mt76 among the routers we're configuring
with ansible-labb-wifi.
