[PATCH 1/3] Bluetooth: btmtk: Route firmware debug event to the diag channel

MediaTek controllers may emit a firmware debug event on the ACL channel
using the reserved handle 0x0efd, which shows up in the ACL header as
0x2efd once the start fragment flag is included.

Neither btmtk_usb_recv_acl() nor btmtksdio_recv_acl() recognizes it, so
the packet is passed to the HCI core, which has no connection with that
handle and complains:

  Bluetooth: hci0: ACL packet for unknown connection handle 3837

Handle it the same way as the existing firmware debug logging packets and
forward it to the diagnostic channel instead.

Verified on MT7922: under the condition that triggers this firmware
debug event, it is now routed to the diag channel instead of reaching
the host as an unknown ACL packet.
