wil6210: add support for discovery mode during scan
Add support for discovery mode during scan. When discovery mode
is active, station transmits special beacons while scanning.
This can optimize the scan mainly when there is only one AP/PCP
around.
Discovery mode is implicitly used by firmware during P2P search.
Since there is currently no use case where user space has a
reason to directly control discovery mode, we expose it only
through a debugfs flag.
Also fix name confusion in the wmi_scan_type enumeration.
The type previously called WMI_LONG_SCAN is actually
WMI_ACTIVE_SCAN.
