[PATCH v3 4/4] mt76: mt7915: 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.
