wl18xx: increase MAX_CHANNELS_5GHZ
Some regdomains have more than 23 valid 5ghz channels,
so 18xx's MAX_CHANNELS_5GHZ was increased to 32.
Since now we have different max 5ghz channels values
for wl12xx and wl18xx, add a new wl->max_channels_5ghz
field, and use it for scan channels configuration.

wlcore: split 18xx and 12xx scan mechanism
The scan APIs of 12xx and 18xx are totally different.
Use some common functions as much as possible (e.g.
for setting scan channels), but split scan.c into
chip-specific scan.c files, each implementing its
own scan mechanism.
(in other words - move most of the current wlcore's
scan.c into wl12xx, and implement a similar mechanism
in 18xx, according to the new api)
New wlcore ops are introduced in order to call the
chip-specific scan functions.
The template indices used for each scan (regular/scheduled)
are also different between the chips, so set the correct
indices used for each scan type after identifying the chip.

wl18xx: change fw name and temporarily fail loading
The new fw (8.5.0.0.28) is not backward compatible
with older drivers.
Use a new fw name (along with bumping the min
fw version), and add some code to fail
any boot attempt during the fw api alignment
patches (as the driver is not functional in
these transitional patches).
This code will be removed after the api alignment
will be done.
When we stop sched scan during connection, we shouldn't
call ieee80211_sched_scan_stopped directly, but do it
in the normal flow, as part of the SCHED_SCAN_COMPLETED
event handling.

wlcore: avoid using goto in normal code flow
Remove goto and label in the code where a simple if can be used. If
nothing else, this is at least confusing git diff, which shows the
label name as the name of the function.

wlcore: configure the remote rates with our own rates
With the new connection flow, start_sta is called before
the remote rates where updated. Use our own supported rates
instead to make sure we don't disable any potential rate
(the rate policies will be updated later, but there is
currently no way to update the remote rates)

wlcore: set active psm on association
The default ps mode of the fw is auto, while the default
ps mode of mac80211 is active (ps off).
In order to sync them, configure active ps on association.

wlcore: implement .remain_on_channel() callback
implement the reamin_on_channel() callback by starting
a dev role (already associated with the current vif)
on the requested channel/band.
This channel is usually different from the channel
of the sta role, so pass it to wl12xx_roc() as well,
and notify mac80211 (async) when the fw is ready
on the new channel.
Now, in case of offchannel tx, we should use the dev
role hlid, instead of the sta hlid.

wlcore: workaround start_sta problem in wl12xx fw
for some reason, the wl12xx fw is not able to rx/tx
on the first start_sta cmd.
Workaround it by issuing a dummy start_sta + stop_sta
before starting the sta for the final time.

wlcore: start sta role on CHANGED_BSSID
Make the connection flow simpler by starting
sta role on bssid change.
Currently, we start dev role when going idle-off,
and start the sta role only after association
indication. This complicates the connection
flow with some possible intermediate states.
Make it simpler by starting sta role on bssid change,
which now happens *before* auth req get sent.
Update the handling of mac80211's notifications
and change wl1271_join/unjoin accordingly -
* Split wl1271_join() into wlcore_join (tuning on
a channel/bssid) and wlcore_set_assoc (configure
sta after association).
* Rename wl1271_unjoin() to wlcore_unset_assoc(), as
it is no longer the inversion of wl1271_join()
(now it's only used to disconnect associated sta /
joined ibss, without stopping the role).
* Set ssid before starting station role (needed for
start_role(sta)
While on it, split wl1271_bss_info_changed_sta() into
some sub-functions.
since we no longer use dev role in the connection flow,
we now always use the hlid of the sta role.
