Added support for enforcing frequent PTK rekeying
Added a new configuration option, wpa_ptk_rekey, that can be used to enforce frequent PTK rekeying, e.g., to mitigate some attacks against TKIP deficiencies. This can be set either by the Authenticator (to initiate periodic 4-way handshake to rekey PTK) or by the Supplicant (to request Authenticator to rekey PTK). With both wpa_ptk_rekey and wpa_group_rekey (in hostapd) set to 600, TKIP keys will not be used for more than 10 minutes which may make some attacks against TKIP more difficult to implement.
