[PATCH v2 1/2] AP: Unsolicited broadcast probe resp support

[Aloka Dixit]

This patch adds hostapd configuration options for unsolicited broadcast
probe response transmission for in-band discovery in 6GHz.
Maximum allowed packet interval is 20 TUs (IEEE P802.11ax/D6.0
26.17.2.3.2, AP behavior for fast passive scanning).
Setting value to 0 disables the transmission.
