// Implements a trivial MAC layer for use in ~IdealWirelessNic.
//
// This module only provides encapsulation/decapsulation (into IdealMacFrame),
// but no real medium access protocol.
//
// Higher layer packets should have Ieee802Ctrl attached to them as
// control info.
//
// See ~IdealWirelessNic for rationale and details.
