Allow MLO disabled connection to legacy open/WPA2-Personal-only AP MLDs

wpa_supplicant was skipping MLD APs from network selection when the AP
advertise legacy open, WPA2-Personal-only (PSK without SAE), or PMF
disabled. However, there are already some early Wi-Fi 7 APs in the
market which advertise legacy open, WPA2-Personal-only, or PMF disabled
even though these combinations are unlikely to be allowed for Wi-Fi 7 in
the end.

To avoid connectivity issues with such APs, allow stations to connect
with MLO disabled when an AP MLD is detected to advertise legacy open,
WPA2-Personal-only (PSK without SAE), or PMF disabled.

This reverts commit 7d8b96dcfd ("wpa_supplicant: Apply same
restrictions for MLD as for 6 GHz BSS") except WEP and TKIP checks,
i.e., AP MLDs which advertise only WEP or TKIP are still skipped from
network selection.

For the SME-in-wpa_supplicant case, skip configuring MLD parameters to
the driver if the STA can connect only in legacy open,
WPA2-Personal-only, or PMF disabled mode. For the SME-in-driver case, it
is the driver's responsibility to initiate connection with MLO disabled
with such APs.
