wifi: rtl8xxxu: Enable AP mode for RTL8710BU (RTL8188GU)

Theoretically this chip can handle 15 clients.

Tested only very briefly but it should work as well as the RTL8188FU.

wifi: rtl8xxxu: Support new chip RTL8192FU

This is a newer chip, similar to the RTL8710BU in that it uses the same
PHY status structs.

Features: 2.4 GHz, b/g/n mode, 2T2R, 300 Mbps.

It can allegedly have Bluetooth, but that's not implemented here.

This chip can have many RFE (RF front end) types, of which types 1
and 5 are the only ones tested. Many of the other types need different
initialisation tables. They can be added if someone wants them.

The vendor driver v5.8.6.2_35538.20191028_COEX20190910-0d02 from
https://github.com/BrightX/rtl8192fu was used as reference, with
additional device IDs taken from
https://github.com/kelebek333/rtl8192fu-dkms.

The vendor driver also claims to support devices with ID 0bda:a725,
but that is found in some bluetooth-only devices, so it's not supported
here.

Add some new members to rtl8xxxu_fileops and use them instead of
checking priv->rtl_chip.

wifi: rtl8xxxu: Support new chip RTL8710BU aka RTL8188GU

This chip is found in cheap "free driver" USB adapters from Aliexpress.
Initially they pretend to be a CD-ROM containing the driver for Windows.
"Ejecting" switches the device to wifi mode.

Features: 2.4 GHz, b/g/n mode, 1T1R, 150 Mbps.

This chip is more unique than other Realtek chips:

* The registers at addresses 0x0-0xff, which all the other chips use,
can't be used here. New registers at 0x8000-0x80ff must be used
instead. And it's not a simple matter of adding 0x8000: 0x2
(REG_SYS_FUNC) became 0x8004, 0x80 (REG_MCU_FW_DL) became 0x8090,
etc.

* Also there are a few new registers which must be accessed indirectly
because their addresses don't fit in 16 bits. No other chips seem to
have these.

* The vendor driver compiles to 8188gu.ko, but the code calls the chip
RTL8710B(U) pretty much everywhere, including messages visible to the
user.

Another difference compared to the other chips supported by rtl8xxxu is
that it has a new PHY status struct, or three of them actually, from
which we extract the RSSI, among other things. This is not unique,
though, just new. The chips supported by rtw88 also use it.
