Change the down/upscale decision logic a bit to be based
on different success ratio thresholds. This fixes the implementation
compared to the rate scale algorithm which was planned to yield
optimal results. Also fix a case where a lower rate wasn't explored
despite being a potential for better throughput.
While at it rewrite rs_get_rate_action to be more clear and clean.

The selection of the max expected throughput for a column
didn't take into account the maximal allowed rate for the current
peer. This can cause unnecessary switches during the search cycle
to columns which have no chance of beating the current throughput.

This makes the code a little bit longer as zero-extension
has to be done (mov vs. movzwl), but that's miniscule and
the space saving is significant, about 600 bytes in DVM
and 700 bytes in MVM, so the cache effect should be worth
the few bytes more code.

While at it, remove two spurious blank lines in variable
declaration blocks.

Simplify the code a bit more by extracting the rates table
building logic into a separate function and handle setting
a fixed rate for debug in a separate flow.
Also avoid using and saving ucode rate format in different
places. Instead use rs_rate struct and convert to ucode format
only when filling the rates table in the LQ command.

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.

Depending on the amount of bluetooth traffic,
using the shared antenna (antenna B) will have
adverse impact on both bluetooth and wireless
traffic. Add controls to improve the situation
by making rate scaling depend on the BT load.

When there's high bluetooth traffic load, there's
little point in trying to aggregate as BT traffic
would disrupt the aggregated frames all the time,
so simply don't start sessions then.

When BT traffic returns to lower levels, the rate
scaling will come here again automatically when
wifi traffic is high enough, and then it will be
able to successfully enable aggregation.
