Android: nl80211: Work around limited genl_ctrl_resolve()

Android ICS system/core/libnl_2 has very limited genl_ctrl_resolve()
implementation that cannot handle names other than nlctrl. Work
around that by implementing more complete genl_ctrl_resolve()
functionality within driver_nl80211.c for Android builds.
