FW will provide a TX rate per link for each FW status,
and wlcore will be able to store the information for
the use of the mesh hwmp module.
This is used mainly in mesh.
Rates are reported when a mesh interface is up.

1. Added support for interface and role of mesh type.
2. Enabled enable/start of mesh-point role,
and opening and closing a connection with a mesh peer.
3. Added multirole combination of mesh and ap
under the same limits of dual ap mode.
4. Add support for 'sta_rc_update' opcode for mesh IF.
The 'sta_rc_update' opcode is being used in mesh_plink.c.
Add support in wlcore to handle this opcode correctly for mesh
(as opposed to current implementation that handles STA only).
5. Bumped the firmware version to support new Mesh functionality

Bump the min wl18xx fw version to 8.8.0.0.13
This fw is not backward compatible with older
firmware (due to api changes), so use bump
the firmware name as well.
Some modifications were done to the driver-fw api
in order to support multiple APs.
Additionally, some of the consts (such as max stations,
max links and max RX BA sessions) were changed.

Upcoming fw versions will have different max links support
(according to the hw). Get ready for it by configuring
wl->num_links per-hw, instead of using the const WL12XX_MAX_LINKS.
However, continue using WLCORE_MAX_LINKS in order to simplify
structs declarations (we use it in multiple bitmaps, and converting
them to dynamic arrays is just cumbersome).

Instead of splitting the fw_status into 2 and using some
complex calculations, read the fw status and let each low-level
driver (wl12xx/wl18xx) convert it into a common struct.
This is required for the upcoming fw api changes, which
break the current logic anyway.

We have no idea how many VIFs there are requiring a special spare, we

Update the 18xx FW status private part to include Tx related link
priorities. Introduce new HW ops to determine link priority per chip
family.
For 18xx the changes are:
- Suspended links are at most low priority and Tx for them is stopped
beyond the suspend threshold.
- Active links now get their thresholds directly from FW
- There's a new "stop" threshold for active links, at which point a link
stops receiving new packets.
Update the min 18xx FW version required to make sure suspended links
bitmap is advertised by the FW.

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.

Different board types (ie. FPGA, HDK and DVP/EVB) require slightly
different init configuration options. Since we cannot probe the type

types, with DVP/EVB as the default, and uses this value where needed.
