[PATCH v3 3/4] mt76: mt7921: fix mgmt frame using unexpected bitrate

From: Sean Wang <sean.wang at mediatek.com>

Fix the current driver mgmt frame is not respecting the basic rates field
provided by the AP and then unconditionally is using the lowest (1 or 6
Mbps) rate.

For example, if the AP only supported basic rate {24, 36, 48, 54} Mbps,
mt7921 cannot send mgmt frame with the rate not in the group. So,
instead, we pick up the lowest basic rate the AP can support to send.

Fixes: 163f4d22c118 ("mt76: mt7921: add MAC support")

v2:  1. introduce another patch ("mt76: fix mt76_rates for the multiple devices")
	for those devices which have the same issue.
     2. drop the own mt7921_rates, the unused macro and variable.
v3:  1. introduce and rely on another patch
	("mt76: add mt76_default_basic_rate more devices can rely on").
     2. add Fixes tag.
