K900 1047f0a6bf nixos/hostapd: set default channel to auto
The current default, 7, is, to put it nicely, absolutely ridiculous.

On 2.4 GHz, the only channels you should use are 1, 6 and 11, because
every other channel overlaps one of those and causes interference.

On 5/6 GHz, channel 7 does not exist at all.

Also, it's 2024, most things will support automatic channel selection,
and those that don't will likely need extra care to support prehistoric
hardware anyway.

This option allows you to define APs for one or multiple physical radios.
At least one radio must be specified.
For each radio, hostapd requires a separate logical interface (like wlp3s0, wlp3s1, ...).
A default interface is usually be created automatically by your system, but to use
multiple radios of a single device, it may be required to create additional logical interfaces
for example by using {option}`networking.wlanInterfaces`.
Each physical radio can only support a single hardware-mode that is configured via
({option}`services.hostapd.radios.<radio>.band`). To create a dual-band
or tri-band AP, you will have to use a device that has multiple physical radios
and supports configuring multiple APs (Refer to valid interface combinations in
