wifi: support for scans in connected state

The 'connected_scan_interval' config attribute specifies the scan
interval in seconds. The commit also removes the deprecated ram_fs
component from the test run script.

+Per default, the driver scans for available networks only when not
+connected. This can be changed with the 'connected_scan_interval'
+config attribute, which specifies the interval for connected scans in
+seconds, e.g.
+
+!<config connected_scan_interval="30">...</config>
+
+Also, the driver can be switched to verbose logging with
+
+!<config verbose="yes">...</config>
+
 The wifi_drv creates two distinct reports to communicate its state and
 information about the wireless infrastructure to other components. The
 first one is a list of all available accesspoints. The following examplary
