Joining a PAN officially goes by associating with a coordinator. This coordinator may have been discovered thanks to the beacons it sent in the past. Add support to the MAC layer for these associations, which require: - Sending an association request - Receiving an association response The association response contains the association status, eventually a reason if the association was unsuccessful, and finally a short address that we should use for intra-PAN communication from now on, if we required one (which is the default, and not yet configurable).
