Compound Module Nic80211Battery

Based on Nic80211

Extends Nic80211 to use the Energy Framework to record battery consumption. The relevant changes for communicating with the Battery module are in PhyLayerBattery; core 80211 functionality is not changed.

parameters: note that the NIC module owns the hardware parameters to allow external access/alternate implementations.
