Commit 0cb39f4fd5 ("HE: Extend BSS color support") sets the BSS Color
default value to 1 as "Interoperability testing showed that stations
will require a BSS color to be set even if the feature is disabled."
A new interop issue was observed with hardcoded BSS color value of 1:
- REF device using one interface (e.g., wlan0) to connect to an HE
AP, whose BSS color is enabled and value is 1.
- REF device using another interface (e.g., p2p0) to connect to a
P2P GO using BSS color default settings.
(i.e., BSS color disabled and value is 1).
- REF device checks both AP's and P2P GO's BSS Color values even though
GO's BSS color is disabled. This causes collision of the BSS
color somehow causing RX problems.
For DUT as a P2P GO, its firmware uses default BSS color value 1 from
wpa_supplicant, then triggers a timer (e.g., 120 s) to update its BSS
color values based on its neighboring BSSes. To reduce the likelihood of
BSS color collision with REF device before that, use a random BSS Color
if not defined in the config file.

Use monitor interface to send_mlme only when the interface is configured

mode. The station interface may also require sending the management
frames without using monitor interface, e.g., support external SAE
authentication to send Authentication frames without monitor interface.
This change allows sending management frames to the driver for a station
interface where the AP interface uses monitor interface.
Additionally, the monitor interface is only valid for AP mode
(nl80211_create_monitor_interface() is called in nl80211_setup_ap) so
interface type check ensures to use monitor interface only when required
