wifi: iwlwifi: mvm: remove per-STA MFP setting
When we first add the STA before sending an authentication frame this is false. However, in some cases such as FT or certainly in MLO link switch scenarios, it will be true. If it happens to be true, it causes a firmware assert (in LMAC, 0x2528), because the same bit is used by the firmware for tracking this setting as well as for tracking if the management key has been installed, and then we get this assert from the firmware when installing the MFP key as it thinks it has already been installed. Remove the setting for now, until the firmware disentangles the two. We should be able to set it, in fact we should be setting it speculatively before authentication/association, to avoid processing management frames that should have been protected/encrypted before the key is set.
