cfg80211: Support hidden AP discovery over 6GHz band
To discover a hidden AP on the 6GHz band, the probe request sent to the AP needs to include the AP's SSID, as some APs would not respond with a probe response based only on short SSID match. To support hidden AP discovery over the 6GHz band, when constructing the specific 6GHz band scan also include SSIDs that were part of the original scan request, so these can be used in the probe requests transmitted during scan.
