wifi: mm81x: prevent timers from outliving teardown

Browse source 
The three timer teardown paths call timer_delete_sync_try() and ignore
its return value. If a callback is running on another CPU it returns -1
without waiting, and it does not prevent a later rearm even when it does
deactivate a pending timer. mm81x_skbq_tx_complete() can rearm the
stale-status timer, and the rc and yaps callbacks queue work that rearms
their timers. Teardown can therefore continue with a callback still
running or the timer rearmed, so it fires after the associated state has
been freed.

Use timer_shutdown_sync() for these permanent teardowns: it waits for an
in-flight callback and prevents any future rearm. In mm81x_rc_deinit()
shut the timer down before cancel_work_sync() so the work can no longer
recreate the timer/work cycle.
