Enable RS to get updated directly via iwl_mvm_rs_tx_status
which will be called by the driver and not via mac80211
rate control. This is required for a following patch to

Also this is a first step in decoupling rs from the

Move the tx stats to the persistent area of lq_sta to
avoid them being zeroed out every time rs reinitializes
which happens after tx idle for 5 secs for example.

max_rate_idx constraint is deprecated and it's handling is
faulty as well as it is relevant only for legacy rates but
was considered in HT/VHT. In most cases there was no side effect
as max_rate_idx was set to -1 but in certain cases like P2P
it got set to an actual rate idx which would limit the maximum
rate in HT/VHT by mistake.
max_rate_idx should be replaced by the masks fields but for
now remove it.

iwl_mvm_rs_rate_init() is called multiple times to re-init
the rate scaling statistics (e.g. after some idle time).

It clears all the lq_sta sta, including some fields that
shouldn't be cleared (e.g. debugfs pointers). Fix it
by adding a new 'persistent' sub-struct, and
avoid clearing it on (re-)init.

Move the initialization of the persistent fields to
rs_alloc_sta instead.

After being idle for a long time (>5sec) the rs statistics
will be stale so we prefer to reset rs and start from legacy
rates again. This gives better results when the attenuation
increased signficantly (e.g. we got further from the AP) and
after a while we start Tx
Note that the first Tx after the idle period will still go out
in the old modulation and rate but this seemed a simpler approach
compared to adding a timer or modifying mac80211 for this.
The negative impact is negligble as we'll recover quickly.

Rewrite the search cycle state machine to use a more data
oriented approach where the different Tx columns (configs)
limitations and next columns to search are reprsented in
tables which are easy to change. This overhaul also includes
several major fixes:

1. Prevent going back to a specific Tx column in a search
cycle if it was already explored.

2. Avoid switching to a Tx column that doesn't have any chance
if it performs perfectly to beat the current throughput we're
getting.

These issues were degrading throughput as they were causing
switching to "bad" Tx columns.
