mac80211: station state transition error handling

Browse Source 
In the future, when we start notifying drivers,
state transitions could potentially fail. To make
it easier to distinguish between programming bugs
and driver failures:
 * rename sta_info_move_state() to
   sta_info_pre_move_state() which can only be
   called before the station is inserted (and
   check this with a new station flag).
 * rename sta_info_move_state_checked() to just
   plain sta_info_move_state(), as it will be
   the regular function that can fail for more
   than just one reason (bad transition or an
   error from the driver)

This makes the programming model easier -- one of
the functions can only be called before insertion
and can't fail, the other can fail.
