Even when fake authentication is unsuccessful it'll still try the WEP attack about wifite

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Sometimes a client is connected and generating hundreds of IVs per second (lots 
of Netflix/YouTube traffic).  In this (rare) case, fake-authentication is not 
required to capture enough packets to crack the WEP key.

While this situation is rare, it can happen, and I don't like the idea of 
Wifite *not* cracking a WEP key if it is possible to do so.

However, I've added the switches '-f' or '--force-auth' in revision 19.  With 
these switches active, a WEP attack will end if fake-authentication is 
unsuccessful.  This option is included in the GUI.

If the -f option is not given, Wifite will still continue despite 
fake-authentication failure (default).  I may change the default behavior if 
more users speak up / complain.

Fixed in revision 19.

From now on, Wifite defaults to quitting an attack if fake authentication fails.

"-f" and "--force-fake" continue the attack if authentication fails.

Thanks for your input; it took a while, but this feature eventually got 
implemented.
