>Description:
	we can configure wi(4) interface in two ways - wiconfig(8) and
	ifconfig(8).  we see some inconsistency in queried configuration
	status from those two.
>How-To-Repeat:
	# wiconfig wi0 -p 1
	# wiconfig wi0 | grep ad-hoc
	Port type (1=BSS, 3=ad-hoc):            [ 1 ]
	# ifconfig wi0 | grep media
		media: IEEE802.11 autoselect adhoc
>Fix:
	- those two bits should be integrated into one in the driver code.
		sc->wi_ptype (1 or 3)
		sc->sc_media.ifm_cur->ifm_media & IFM_IEEE80211_ADHOC
	- in the far future, wiconfig should be nuked and ifconfig should
	  always be used?  in this case can we query wave strength with
	  ifconfig?
