docs: document OpenWrt cfg80211 backport builds

27af5ad added the CFG80211_VERSION make variable for OpenWrt builds that
use a newer mac80211 backport than the target kernel, but it is only
described in a Makefile comment. Document how to pass it from an OpenWrt
package Makefile, link the notes from the installation steps, and add
the build script and the kernel/backports combinations verified for
issue #94.
