wifi: ath12k: Add 4-address mode support for eth offload

Browse source 
Currently driver does not enable the hardware/firmware support for handling
4-address multicast frames in the Tx/Rx path when 8023_ENCAP_OFFLOAD is
enabled. Add the required support to ensure correct processing of multicast
traffic in 4-address mode.

Enable this functionality by setting the WMI_VDEV_PARAM_AP_ENABLE_NAWDS
vdev parameter when the 8023_ENCAP_OFFLOAD feature is active. Override
peer metadata values for 4-address multicast packet transmission by using
the station's ast_hash and ast_idx instead of vdev-level metadata,
and set HAL_TCL_DATA_CMD_INFO4_IDX_LOOKUP_OVERRIDE to indicate this
override.

Suppress firmware peer-map events for 4-address frames by setting the
WMI_RSRC_CFG_FLAGS2_FW_AST_INDICATION_DISABLE flag during WMI
initialization. This prevents inconsistencies in the host's peer list.

Add the IEEE80211_OFFLOAD_ENCAP_4ADDR VIF offload flag to notify mac80211
that 4-address Ethernet encapsulation offload is supported.

Tested-on: QCN9274 hw2.0 PCI WLAN.WBE.1.6-01243-QCAHKSWPL_SILICONZ-1
