[PATCHv2] wpa_supplicant: Implement fast-associate on SelectNetwork

If scan results are available when we perform a SelectNetwork, use
them to make an associate decision. This can save an entire scan
interval-worth of time in situations where something external to
wpa_supplicant (like a connection manager) has just previously
requested a scan before calling SelectNetwork.
