As originally proposed in [1], the ath12k driver was re-architected in
the ath12k-ng branch to separate the logic specific to 802.11be (Wi-Fi
7) from the core logic. This separation will allow ath12k to also
support 802.11bn (Wi-Fi 8) in the future. Now merge this into ath-next.

Many thanks to everyone who worked on this re-architecture. Special
thanks to Vasanthakumar Thiagarajan and Baochen Qiang who reviewed
every patch, and to Ripan Deuri for the ath12k-ng => ath-next merge
conflict resolution.

Actual merge commit:

Note that as a result any pending ath12k patches may need to be rebased to
conform to the new architecture.
