AP: Avoid setting same MLD and link address

Browse source 
For AP MLD, when BSSID configuration is specified without mld_addr, the
first link address is used as the MLD MAC address as well. Though IEEE
P802.11be allows this, the current implementation and the kernel aren't
happy about it. Better avoid this.
