platform: detect non-mac80211 WiFi devices as WiFi (rh #1015598)

Browse Source 
Before NMPlatform landed, the old NMManager code looked at either
DEVTYPE=wlan or asked the internal wifi utilities whether the
device was WiFi or not.  This got lost when moving to NMPlatform.

It turns out that only mac80211-based drivers set the DEVTYPE=wlan
flag in sysfs, while older WEXT, out-of-tree, and staging drivers
often do not (though they should).

To avoid breaking recognition of these crappy drivers that used
to work, re-add the wifi utils checks.
