nl80211: add feature for BSS selection support
Introducing a new feature that the driver can use to indicate the driver/firmware supports configuration of BSS selection criteria upon CONNECT command. This can be useful when multiple BSS-es are found belonging to the same ESS, ie. Infra-BSS with same SSID. The criteria can then be used to offload selection of a preferred BSS.
