wifi: cfg80211: validate AP phy operation before starting it
Many regulatories can have HE/EHT Operation as not permitted. In such
cases, AP should not be allowed to start if it is using a channel
having the no operation flag set. However, currently there is no such
check in place.
Fix this issue by validating such IEs sent during start AP against the
channel flags.
