netdev: Deprecate CAPWAP support.
The CAPWAP implementation is just the encapsulation format and
therefore really not the full protocol. While there were some
uses of it (primarily hardware support and UDP transport). But
these are most likely better provided by VXLAN. As a result,
CAPWAP will be removed no earlier than February 2013.
