ath10k: reject 11b tx fragmentation configuration
Even though there's a WMI enum for fragmentation threshold no known firmware actually implements it. Moreover it is not possible to rely frame fragmentation to mac80211 because firmware clears the "more fragments" bit in frame control making it impossible for remote devices to reassemble frames. Hence implement a dummy callback just to say fragmentation isn't supported. This effectively prevents mac80211 from doing frame fragmentation in software. This fixes Tx becoming broken after setting fragmentation threshold.
