cfg80211: enable 5 GHz world roaming channels

The current static world regulatory domain is too restrictive,
we can use some 5 GHz channels world wide so long as they do not
touch frequencies which require DFS. The compromise is we must
also enforce passive scanning and disallow usage of a mode of
operation that beacons: (AP | IBSS | Mesh)
