nl80211: Do not add all virtual interfaces to drv->if_indices

Browse Source 
Commit 04eff7d5ba or something around that
timeframe may have caused a regression on how drv->if_indices gets used
with wpa_supplicant. Most (curretly likely all) wpa_supplicant virtual
interface use cases should not actually use this. This could result in
issues with P2P group interfaces delivering events to incorrect
interface (parent rather than the group interface). The previous commit
removed some of the issues, but more complete fix is to undo some of
those merged hostapd/wpa_supplicant operations.

Filter add_ifidx() uses based on hostapd vs. wpa_supplicant and iftype
to get closer to the earlier wpa_supplicant behavior for the driver
events from virtual interfaces.
