[PATCH 3/5] Bluetooth: hci_event: Add quirk to ignore byte in LE Extended Adv Report

Broadcom controllers present on Apple Silicon devices use the upper
8 bits of the event type in the LE Extended Advertising Report for
the channel on which the frame has been received.
Add a quirk to drop the upper byte to ensure that the advertising
results are parsed correctly.

The following except from a btmon trace shows a report received on
channel 37 by these controllers:
