Back in 2016 we enabled RTS threshold by default because it apparently
helped us on a loaded hackathon wifi network. In 11n mode we are now
using a heuristic for this. Disable RTS threshold for all other modes
again because it can do more harm than good in many situations.
This change may increase Tx throughput in 11a/g modes, though results depend
on the driver. Some drivers, e.g. urtwn(4), keep using RTS regardless for
unknown reasons and may need to be fixed separately. And we will keep using
RTS if the AP enables 11g protection while 11b clients are around.
