mac80211: avoid VHT usage with no 80MHz chans allowed
Currently if 80MHz channels are not allowed for use, the VHT IE is not included in the probe request for an AP. This is not good enough if the AP is configured with the wrong regulatory and supports VHT even where prohibited or in TDLS scenarios. Mark the ifmgd with the DISABLE_VHT flag for the misbehaving-AP case, and unset VHT support from the peer-station entry for the TDLS case.
