[PATCH v4] ath10k: create debugfs interface to trigger fw crash

This can be useful for testing. To perform a
forced firmware crash write 'crash' to
'simulate_fw_crash' debugfs file. E.g.

  echo crash > /sys/kernel/debug/ieee80211/phy1/ath10k/simulate_fw_crash

v3: return an appropriate errno instead of using ath10k_warn()
