[PATCH v1 0/2] wpa_supplicant: avoid redundant 6 GHz rescans after suspend/resume

wpa_supplicant's D-Bus Scan() API already supports restricting a scan
to specific channels via the "Channels" parameter. This series makes
sure wpa_supplicant does not force a redundant rescan when 6 GHz gets
enabled, if the last scan already covered 6 GHz, or was deliberately
restricted to specific channels in the first place.

This was found while preparing a NetworkManager change (not yet
upstream) that restricts the post-resume reconnect scan to the
last-associated channel to speed up reconnection.

  wpa_supplicant: avoid redundant rescan when 6 GHz was already covered
  wpa_supplicant: don't force rescan for restricted scans
