This would change the new_scan argument for
wpas_select_network_from_last_scan(). However, that argument is not
indicating whether a new scan is requested, but reporting whether the
scan results were from a new scan. As such, this change does not seem to
match the commit log. If the issue described in the commit log is indeed
a valid issue, the fix for it must be something completely different..
Maybe an additional "int own_request" argument for
wpas_select_network_from_last_scan() and using that to determine whether
to start the scan request at the end of the selected == NULL && ssid ==
NULL case?
