Revert "wireless: T2241: add "wds" CLI option"

This reverts commit 806f35b5856c3f8dae634718a6a9e82cc90bb63a.

Unfortunately this did not work our in the attempt to bridge a station to a
bridge "brX" interface. Also adjusting the wireless interface during operation
cause several exceptions and the feature is removed again as it was never in any
production system.
