Split Windows Server 2003 and Windows Vista behaviour in two different cases and make them used separately: when ReactOS target version is NT 5.2, use the 1st case, otherwise use the 2nd one instead.
Also, handle NdisPhysicalMediumNative802_11 case only for NT 6.0 and newer, since that's actually supported starting from NDIS 6.0, according to MSDN:
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-hardware/drivers/network/oid-gen-physical-medium
while for NDIS 5.1 and newer it's:
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/previous-versions/windows/hardware/network/ff560255(v=vs.85)
This fixes:
1. A critical regression with unavailable networking in ReactOS when 3rd-party NT5-compatible Ethernet/Wi-Fi drivers are used (both in VM and on real hardware) caused by commit 3842b59f75 from @EricKohl.
2. Failure to open Network Properties and Network Status from the Network tray icon (caused by the same commit too).
MSDN tells us this is done so for Windows XP and Server 2003 as well, and IF_TYPE_IEEE80211 is returned only in Windows Vista and newer, so the following Microsoft documentation is actually correct in this case:
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/api/iptypes/ns-iptypes-ip_adapter_info
(see the information about "IP_ADAPTER_INFO.Type" member below on that page)
!!!Please note that the behaviour of Vista+ case (e. g., when compiling ReactOS targeted as NT 6.0 and newer) remains unchanged after this fix (networking still may not work), so it still requires the proper support of 3rd-party NT6+ compatible network miniport drivers (by handling this case via the Vista/NDIS6-style way) for NT6 target!!!

Build instructions for TCP/IP protocol driver
---------------------------------------------
Building with Visual C++ and Windows NT DDK:
Variables:
%BASEDIR% = path to NT4 DDK (e.g. c:\ntddk)
%DDKBUILDENV% = DDK build environment (free or checked)
DDK environment variables must be set! (run setenv.bat)
- Create the directory objects/i386/%DDKBUILDENV%
- Run "build" to build the driver
Building with Mingw32 and ReactOS include files:
- Build NDIS.SYS (i.e. "make ndis")
- Run "make tcpip" FROM THE ReactOS ROOT DIRECTORY to build the driver
