wpa_group_update_count and wpa_pairwise_update_count can now be used to
set the GTK and PTK rekey retries.
Defaults set to current hardcoded value (4).
Some stations may suffer from frequent deauthentications due to GTK rekey
failures: EAPOL 1/2 frame is not answered during the total timeout period
of currently ~3.5 seconds.
E.g. a Galaxy S6 with Android 6.0.1 appears to go into power save mode
for up to 5 seconds. Increasing wpa_group_update_count to 6 fixed this issue.
