[PATCH ath-next v2] wifi: ath12k: Abort scan before removing link interface to prevent duplicate deletion

Currently, when ath12k performs the remove link interface operation, if
there is an ongoing scan operation on the arvif, ath12k may execute the
remove link interface operation multiple times on the same arvif. This
occurs because, during the remove link operation, if a scan operation is
present on the arvif, ath12k may receive a WMI_SCAN_EVENT_COMPLETED event
from the firmware. Upon receiving this event, ath12k will continue to
execute the ath12k_scan_vdev_clean_work() function, performing the remove
link interface operation on the same arvif again.

To address this issue, before executing the remove link interface
operation, ath12k needs to check if there is an ongoing scan operation on
the current arvif. If such an operation exists, it should be aborted.

Tested-on: WCN7850 hw2.0 PCI WLAN.HMT.1.0.c5-00481-QCAHMTSWPL_V1.0_V2.0_SILICONZ-3
