Title:
  Add option to configure wireless network frequency / channel

Status in netplan:
  Fix Released
Status in netplan.io package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  I am trying to use Netplan to configure a set of Ubuntu-based
  computers that connect to each other via an ad-hoc wireless network.
  Before netplan, I used to do this in wpa_supplicant.conf like this:

  network={
    ssid="some-ssid"
    psk="some-password"
    mode=1
    frequency=2412
  }

  Note that the configuration does not work without specifying the
  frequency -- the ad-hoc network does not get established when the
  first node boots up because it needs to know which wireless channel to
  use. Unfortunately, Netplan does not allow me to specify the channel
  or the frequency manually in the configuration file (even though the
  "Complex example" section in https://netplan.io/design seems to
  suggest that there is a "channel" option).

  Would it be possible to add support for specifying the wireless
  channel or frequency explicitly?
