cfg80211: use wdev in mgmt-tx/ROC APIs

The management frame and remain-on-channel APIs will be
needed in the P2P device abstraction, so move them over
to the new wdev-based APIs. Userspace can still use both
the interface index and wdev identifier for them so it's
backward compatible, but for the P2P Device wdev it will
be able to use the wdev identifier only.

ath6kl: Use correct max-scan-SSIDs limit

The currently used firmware images support 16 SSIDs in the scan
request (indexes 0..15), so update the host driver to use the same
limit to allow some more SSIDs to be scanned per request. In addition,
change the max-index to max-SSIDs to make it easier to understand the
implementation and fix couple of off-by-one checks that could limit
the maximum number of entries too strictly.

ath6kl_sdio: Fix the EAPOL out of order issue

Send the EAPOL and management frames in the same AC_VO queue. The issue
happens when the AP supports QOS, the management frames are sent to AC_VO
queue and EAP frame goes to AC_BE queue. Even though the EAP frame is
queued before the DEAUTH management frame, as they are queued on different
h/w queues, order of delivery between these frames cannot be controlled.

This fixes the connection failure seen in P2P case.

RSN capability field of RSN IE which is generated (which is what really

failure. To fix this, configure rsn capability used in wpa_supplicant

(ATH6KL_FW_CAPABILITY_RSN_CAP_OVERRIDE) in fw_capabilities to advertise
