iwlwifi: mvm: Passively scan non PSC channels only when requested so

Browse source

Non PSC channels should generally be scanned based on information about
collocated APs obtained during scan on legacy bands, and otherwise
should not be scanned unless specifically requested so (as there are
relatively many non PSC channels, scanning them passively is time consuming
and interferes with regular data traffic).

Thus, modify the scan logic to avoid passively scanning PSC channels
if there is no information about collocated APs and the scan is not
a passive scan.
