   * A mode that the chip can be put in. A mode defines a set of constraints on
   * the interfaces that can exist while in that mode. Modes define a unit of
   * configuration where all interfaces must be torn down to switch to a
   * different mode. Some HALs may only have a single mode, but an example where
   * multiple modes would be required is if a chip has different firmwares with
   * different capabilities.
   *
   * When in a mode, it must be possible to perform any combination of creating
   * and removing interfaces as long as at least one of the
   * ChipIfaceCombinations is satisfied. This means that if a chip has two
   * available combinations, [{STA} <= 1] and [{AP} <= 1] then it is expected
   * that exactly one STA interface or one AP interface can be created, but it
   * is not expected that both a STA and AP interface could be created. If it
   * was then there would be a single available combination
   * [{STA} <=1, {AP} <= 1].
   *
   * When switching between two available combinations it is expected that
   * interfaces only supported by the initial combination will be removed until
   * the target combination is also satisfied. At that point new interfaces
   * satisfying only the target combination can be added (meaning the initial
   * combination limits will no longer satisfied). The addition of these new
   * interfaces should not impact the existence of interfaces that satisfy both
   * combinations.
   *
   * For example, a chip with available combinations:
   *     [{STA} <= 2, {NAN} <=1] and [{STA} <=1, {NAN} <= 1, {AP} <= 1}]
   * If the chip currently has 3 interfaces STA, STA and NAN and wants to add an
   * AP interface in place of one of the STAs then first one of the STA
   * interfaces must be removed and then the AP interface can be created after
   * the STA had been torn down. During this process the remaining STA and NAN
   * interfaces should not be removed/recreated.
   *
   * If a chip does not support this kind of reconfiguration in this mode then
   * the combinations should be separated into two separate modes. Before
   * switching modes all interfaces will be torn down, the mode switch will be
   * enacted and when it completes the new interfaces will be brought up.
