The command is already printed out here here with wpa_hexdump_ascii*.
Since the control interface commands can include passwords or other
private information, their contents cannot be printed out with
wpa_printf() unconditionally, i.e., those two different branch here
needs to be followed to figure out whether the information can be
included in the debug log without -K on the command line.
