In the previous implementation connected STA performs OBSS scan
according to requests from its 20/40 MHz AP. However STA checks only 40
MHz intolerance subfield from HT Capabilities element in scan results.
Meanwhile, as per IEEE Std 802.11-2016, 11.16.12, STA should check
overlapping BSSs as well.
Note that all the required code to check overlapping BSSs did already
exist for AP mode since AP does those checks properly before operating
as 20/40 MHz BSS in the 2.4 GHz band. Use that existing code by replace
existing 40 MHz intolerance check in sme_proc_obss_scan() with the new
shared helper function check_bss_coex_40mhz().

After the network changed to a new channel, perform an SA Query with the
AP after a random delay if OCV was negotiated for the association. This
is used to confirm that we are still operating on the real operating
channel of the network. This commit is adding only the station side
functionality for this, i.e., the AP behavior is not changed to
disconnect stations with OCV that do not go through SA Query.

Extend the SME functionality to support the external authentication.
External authentication may be used by the drivers that do not define
separate commands for authentication and association
(~WPA_DRIVER_FLAGS_SME) but rely on wpa_supplicant's SME for the
authentication.

There is no need to keep temporary keys in memory beyond the end of the
association, so explicitly clear any SAE buffers that can contain keys
as soon as such keys are not needed.

Add support for HT STA to report 40 MHz intolerance to the associated AP.
A HT station generates a report (20/40 BSS coexistence) of channel list
if it finds a non-HT capable AP or a HT AP which prohibits 40 MHz
transmission (i.e., 40 MHz intolerant bit is set in HT capabilities IE)
from the scan results.
Parse the OBSS scan parameter from Beacon or Probe Response frames and
schedule periodic scan to generate 20/40 coexistence channel report if
requested to do so. This patch decodes Scan Interval alone from the OBSS
Scan Parameters element and triggers scan on timeout.

mac80211 authentication or association operation may get stuck for some
reasons, so wpa_supplicant better use an internal timer to recover from
this.

If a station received unprotected Deauthentication or Disassociation
frame with reason code 6 or 7 from the current AP, there may be a
mismatch in association state between the AP and STA. Verify whether
this is the case by using SA Query procedure. If not response is
received from the AP, deauthenticate.
This implementation is only for user space SME with
driver_nl80211.c.
cfg80211/mac80211 can get into somewhat confused state if the AP only
disassociates us and leaves us in authenticated state. For now, force
the state to be cleared with deauthentication to avoid confusing errors
if we try to associate with the AP again. This gets rid of 30 second
delay (scan timeout) in cases where only a disassociation frame is
received from the AP.
This can be used, e.g., with mac80211-based Linux drivers with
nl80211. This allows over-the-air FT protocol to be used (IEEE
802.11r).
Since the nl80211 interface needed for this is very recent (added
today into wireless-testing.git), driver_nl80211.c has backwards
compatibility code that uses WEXT for association if the kernel does
not support the new commands. This compatibility code can be
disabled by defining NO_WEXT_COMPAT. That code will also be removed
at some point to clean up driver_nl80211.c.
