After fixing linter issues and errors from merging of the current main, I think this PR can be merged now. I did not change functionality of the original PR, but did remove unnecessary and incomplete Frequency-to-Channel (and vice versa) Functions. Currently the Parsing of the Attributes of the PHY-Messages does not cover all Attributes, but the existing ones can be useful. |

Continuing the work started in #99 by @Supernovatux
----- original PR Text -----
Based on #17 by @dhduvall. It was very hard to rebase the 7 year old PR. So I created a new one here. Borrows most of the code from the old one.
Additions and changes
Added parsing of VHTCapabilities
Handles VHT MCS and HT MCS.
Uses "golang.org/x/sys/unix" instead of "github.com/mdlayher/wifi/internal/nl80211"
Uses c.get instead of c.execute wherever appropriate in getPHYs()
As this PR includes the first lines of Go code I've written (and copied thanks to dhduvall). This will probably need some review :) Suggestions for improvements are welcome!
