Revert "mac80211: in IBSS use the Auth frame to trigger STA reinsertion"

This reverts commit 6d810f10325522cfcf498dc6d64b9f96e1f5153f

In this way an IBSS station will not use the AUTH messages
to trigger a state reinitialisation anymore.

The behaviour was racy and was not working properly.
It has been introduced to help wpa_supplicant to support
IBSS/RSN, however all the logic is now getting moved into
wpa_s itself which will also be in charge of handling the
AUTH messages thanks to the mgmt frame registration.

If userspace does not register for receiving AUTH frames
then mac80211 will still reply by itself.

At the same time, the auth frame registration counter can be
removed since it is not needed anymore.

very mixed up with the MLME handling, which has been

 * SME events (connected, disconnected etc.) for all
   different SME implementation possibilities (driver,
   cfg80211 and userspace)

To achieve these goals it isn't necessary to track the
software SME's connection status outside of it's state
(which is the part that caused many issues.) Instead,
track it only in the SME data (wdev->conn) and in the
general case only track whether the wdev is connected
or not (via wdev->current_bss.)

Also separate the internal implementation to not have
callbacks from the SME events, but rather call it from
the API functions that the driver (or rather mac80211)

AP via injection and manage the state in user space.
