Call nl80211_send_monitor() directly instead of going through
wpa_driver_nl80211_send_frame() for the case where monitor interface is
used for AP mode management purposes. drv->use_monitor has to be 1 in
this code path, so wpa_driver_nl80211_send_frame() was calling
nl80211_send_monitor() unconditionally for this code path and that extra
function call can be removed here to simplify the implementation.

Netlink dump message may be interrupted if an internal inconsistency is
detected in the kernel code. This can happen, e.g., if a Beacon frame
from the current AP is received while NL80211_CMD_GET_SCAN is used to
fetch scan results. Previously, such cases would end up not reporting an
error and that could result in processing partial data.
Modify this by detecting this special interruption case and converting
it to an error. For the NL80211_CMD_GET_SCAN, try again up to 10 times
to get the full response. For other commands (which are not yet known to
fail in similar manner frequently), report an error to the caller.

This is targeting the case of MAC address change for an association
which may require the interface to be set down for a short moment.
Previously, this ended up flushing the BSS table that wpa_supplicant
maintained and that resulted in having to scan again if the MAC address
was changed between the previous scan and the connection attempt. This
is unnecessary extra latency, so maintain the BSS entries for 5 seconds
(i.e., the same time that the old scan results are consider valid for a
new connection attempt) after an interface goes down.

Currently, wpa_supplicant may roam too aggressively; the need_to_roam()
function will return early with a roaming decision if the difference in
signal level or throughput between the current and selected APs is
"sufficiently large." In particular, if the selected AP's estimated
throughput is more than 5k greater than the current AP's estimated
throughput, wpa_supplicant will decide to roam. Otherwise, if the
selected AP's signal level is less than the current AP's signal level,
or the selected AP's estimated throughput is at least 5k less than the
current AP's estimated throughput, wpa_supplicant will skip the roam.
These decisions are based only on one factor and can lead to poor
roaming choices (e.g., a roam should not happen if the selected AP's
estimated throughput meets the threshold but the current signal and
throughput are already good, whereas a roam should happen if the signal
is slightly worse but the estimated throughput is significantly better).
This change standardizes the roaming heuristic for signal strength
difference requirements and will hopefully improve user experience. The
change can be summarized as follows: based on the current signal level,
a certain roaming difficulty is assigned. Based on the selected AP's
estimated throughput relative to the current AP's estimated throughput,
the difficulty is adjusted up or down. If the difference in signal level
meets the threshold, a roam happens.
The hard-coded values were selected purely based on the previous version
of this function. They may eventually need to be fine-tuned for optimal
performance.

Do not prevent roam to a different BSS based only on the signal level
with the current BSS being higher than with the selected BSS. If the
estimated throughput is significantly higher (> 20%), allow roaming if
the following conditions are met.

If the current SNR with the associated BSS is sufficiently good (better
than GREAT_SNR = 25), there is limited benefit from moving to another
BSS even if that BSS were to have a higher signal level. As such, skip
roaming based on the signal level difference between the selected BSS
from scan results and the current BSS for such cases.

Using average signal strength from the driver and hardcoded noise floor
does not look like an ideal design since there can be significant
differences in the driver-reported noise floor values. Furthermore, even
though the current noise floor is a snapshot from the driver, it is
common for drivers to use a noise floor value from a longer calibration
step and that should not prevent the driver provided value from being
used. This makes the comparisons of the signal strengths between the
current AP (signal_poll) and other APs (scan) more accurate.
As an example, test runs in home environment showed 5 dB difference
between the driver reported noise floor and the hardcoded value and this
could result in significant differences in estimated throughput
calculation.

We saw that on certain platforms in certain places we keep switching
between two APs and eventually get the same RSSI. Debugging showed that
we have a very big difference between the two antennas.
Ant A can hear AP A very well (-60) but AP B very bad (-80)
Ant B can hear AP B very well (-60) but AP A very bad (-80)
When the device associates to AP A, it'll learn to use Ant A. If the
device uses one single antenna to receive the scan results, it may hear
the AP it is currently associated to on the second antenna and get bad
results. Because of that, the wpa_supplicant will roam to the other AP
and the same scenario will repeat itself:
Association to AP A (Ant A reports -60).
Scan on Ant A: AP A: -60, AP B: -80
Scan on Ant B: AP A: -80, AP A: -60 ==> ROAM.
Association to AP B (Ant B reports -60)
Scan on Ant A: AP A: -60, AP B: -80 ==> ROAM
Etc...
Improve this by querying the signal level of the current AP using
drv_signal_poll() instead of relying on the signal level that we get
from the scan results. Also update the throughput estimate based on the
likely more accurate values for the current association.

This commit changes the failover behavior of RADIUS client. Commit
27ebadccfb ("RADIUS client: Cease endless retry for message for
multiple servers") changed the retry logic, causing RADIUS client to
wait RADIUS_CLIENT_NUM_FAILOVER + 1 timeouts before failing over the
first time. Prior to that commit, RADIUS client would wait
RADIUS_CLIENT_NUM_FAILOVER timeouts before each failover. This was
caused by moving the entry->attempts > RADIUS_CLIENT_NUM_FAILOVER
comparison to before the retry attempt, where entry->attempts is
incremented.
The commit in question set entry->attempts in radius_change_server to 1
instead of 0, so RADIUS client would still only wait
RADIUS_CLIENT_NUM_FAILOVER timeouts for subsequent failovers, the same
as the original behavior.
This commit changes the comparison so the initial failover now happens
after waiting RADIUS_CLIENT_NUM_FAILOVER timeouts, as it did originally.
It also changes the RADIUS_CLIENT_MAX_FAILOVER comparison to prevent an
additional attempt to the primary server after the final failover.
