[PATCH] ieee80211: add the value for Category '6' in "rtw_ieee80211_category"

From: Christophe JAILLET <hidden>
Date: 2021-06-19 13:36:47
Also in: kernel-janitors, lkml
Subsystem: 802.11 (including cfg80211/nl80211), the rest · Maintainers: Johannes Berg, Linus Torvalds

Preparation work for removing the "enum rtw_ieee80211_category" in
"drivers/staging/rtl8188eu/include/ieee80211.h" and
"drivers/staging/rtl8723bs/include/ieee80211.h".

This enum is similar to "enum ieee80211_category" from
"include/linux/ieee80211.h". However it defines the value '6' as
RTW_WLAN_CATEGORY_FT.

So add a corresponding value in "ieee80211_category"

/!\ Review with care. I don't have access to the standard. /!\

The name has been adjusted from what I have found on:
   https://mrncciew.com/2014/10/09/802-11-mgmt-action-frames/

I guess that FT was for "Fast Transition".
