Patch to correct erroneous MCS field issue in 802.11n PCAP files

The MCS field has replaced the data rate field for IEEE 802.11n radiotap headers in PCAP files. 

Nevertheless, this field has not been updated in ns-3 to support 802.11n MCS fields in radiotap headers, resulting in erroneous MCS fields in 802.11n PCAP files.

I provide in attachment a patch to correct this issue. Let me know if you have any comment.

I'll add this next week if no other comments.  I will put braces around the if/else statement blocks before doing so.
