Just opening the discussion here. While the ieee802154 recently has seen some activity it has been abandoned for 3+ years. While the smoltcp's IEEE 802.15.4 support has been there for quite some time, and smoltcp has much more users.

Plus smoltcp's implementation is mostly zero-copy which should be beneficial for our application.

Feel free to open a PR changing dependencies, I don't have any hard feelings either way.
