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.

Field wpa_s->sme.ht_sec_chan keeps secondary channel for the 40 MHz
band. This field is used to prepare a list of channels for the STA OBSS

Later on, in function wpa_obss_scan_freq_list() it is obtained from the
current BSS HT operation IE. However, the secondary channel information
is not updated after channel switch, which may lead to an incorrect list
of channels prepared for the STA OBSS scan.

In the previous implementation connected STA performs OBSS scan
according to requests from its 20/40 MHz AP. However STA checks only 40
MHz intolerance subfield from HT Capabilities element in scan results.
Meanwhile, as per IEEE Std 802.11-2016, 11.16.12, STA should check
overlapping BSSs as well.
Note that all the required code to check overlapping BSSs did already
exist for AP mode since AP does those checks properly before operating
as 20/40 MHz BSS in the 2.4 GHz band. Use that existing code by replace
existing 40 MHz intolerance check in sme_proc_obss_scan() with the new
shared helper function check_bss_coex_40mhz().

This extends hostapd and wpa_supplicant DPP implementation to allow the
bootstrapping URI to be generated for and parsed from an NFC Tag with an
NFC URI Record. This is similar to the way the bootstrapping URI is used
with QR Code for unidirectional authentication.
The DPP_BOOTSTRAP_GEN command uses "type=nfc-uri" to request the URI to
be assigned for NFC URI Record. In practice, the URI is generated
identically to the QR Code case, but the internal entry maintains the
NFC-URI type.
A new command "DPP_NFC_URI <uri>" can now be used to parse the URI read
from an NFC Tag with the NFC URI Record. This is similar to the
DPP_QR_CODE command.

URI in the same way as they are used for QR Code.

Previously ANQP fetch considered NAI realm query only when cred block
did not specify roaming_consortium to optimize ANQP operations (NAI

resulted in ANQP fetch for NAI realm not being initiated. That could
result in not being able to select the highest priority available
credential/network.
Remove roaming_consortium check for NAI realm query inclusion in ANQP
request so that we will request NAI realm information whenever it can
result in matching additional networks. This makes the ANQP queries more
costly in some cases, but the additional information is needed for
