cfg80211 supports NL80211_CMD_GET_SMD_CTX from userspace on the current
AP MLD to collect the station's context on the target AP MLD's behalf;
this context is used by the target AP MLD to program its TX and RX
queues to support seamless roaming of the non-AP MLD.

Add mac80211 support for the same to invoke the driver to collect the
requested station context. Since context collection is asynchronous,
the driver reports the collected context later via
ieee80211_get_smd_ctx_done(), which then packs the context into
NL80211_CMD_SMD_CTX_EVENT and delivers it to userspace as a multicast
event.
