Contribution description
This PR adds a IEEE 802.15.4 configuration for setting the maximum number of frame retransmissions.
Thereby the IEEE802154_SUBMAC_MAX_RETRANSMISSIONS is not needed anymore and the user can simply set the number of retransmissions from Kconfig/CFLAGS.
Testing procedure
Try e.g
examples/gnrc_networking
with any IEEE 802.15.4 HAL based radio (e.g nrf52840). Try pinging with a stress configuration (e.gping <addr> -c 50 -s 1024 -i 200
.Then, set CONFIG_IEEE802154_DEFAULT_MAX_FRAME_RETRANS to a low value (e.g 1). Repeat the procedure. Packet losses should increase.
