[PATCH v2] wireless-regdb: Update regulatory rules for Sri Lanka (LK)

Update Sri Lanka regulatory domain based on the RTTE Type Approval
Rules 2020 from the Telecommunications Regulatory Commission of
Sri Lanka (TRC).

Key changes:
- Change DFS region from FCC to ETSI (document references ETSI
  standards EN 300 328 and EN 301 893 as the applicable radio
  interface standards)
- 2.4 GHz: expand to 2400-2483.5 MHz at 23 dBm
- 5150-5250 MHz: 23 dBm with DFS
- 5250-5350 MHz: 20 dBm with DFS (no TPC, 3 dB reduction per EN 301 893)
- 5470-5725 MHz: 27 dBm with DFS (no TPC, per EN 301 893)
- 5725-5875 MHz: 24 dBm with DFS (per ETSI EN 302 502)

Note: The TRC gazette conflicts internally by allowing 30 dBm for
5725-5875 MHz while citing EN 301 893 (which doesn't cover this band).
Lacking TRC clarification, we conservatively default to the ETSI
EN 302 502 limits (24 dBm).

Thanks for the review and catching the TPC and ETSI standard details!

Changes in v2:
- Split 5150-5350 MHz into 5150-5250 MHz (23 dBm) and 5250-5350 MHz
  (20 dBm), adding AUTO-BW to both.
- Applied a 3 dB reduction to 5250-5350 MHz and 5470-5725 MHz (now
  27 dBm) to comply with ETSI limits since TPC is unsupported.
- Capped 5725-5875 MHz at 24 dBm per ETSI EN 302 502.
