3 Enable Dynamic Debug for wl18xx, mac80211, cfg80211

The WL18xx driver uses the Linux kernel dynamic debug mechanism (debugfs), but it implements its own interface above. To enable debug output, the whole module has to be enabled in the dynamic debug Linux kernel subsystem and configuring the specific debug information one might be interested in is done via driver debug categories.
