f282dcd by Guy Harris (guy@xxxxxxxxxxxx):

    Handle -k better on platforms that don't support it.
    
    Have ws80211_init() return an indication that channel setting isn't
    supported on those platforms.
    
    In dumpcap, try to set up ws80211 before checking the channel argument
    and, if it fails, report the failure, rather than failing because the
    "convert channel name to channel code" routine fails.
    
    See
    
        https://ask.wireshark.org/question/15535/dumpcap-k-is-not-accepting-channel-type-values/
    
    for an example of confusion caused by the previous behavior.
