Add support for setting txpower from upper layer and configuring

Hello Shayne,
Hi Ben,
From what I can tell, this patch causes STA vdevs to no longer send
probe
requests when trying to associate. I bisected to this in Felix's
tree that holds
this patch.
Tested on x86-64, mtk7996 radio. Specifically
debugged on 2.4Ghz radio, but I think it affects 5Ghz too.
I have done some tests but didn't face this issue. Could you also use
the newer firmware to test if it still happens?
Hello Shayne,
I rebased on 6.8, and started adding some debugging around this issue.
I am using the MTK 7996 developer radio board on this system, in an x86-64 pc. It is not able
to find the 'node', so the per mode power tables are not populated and left at
0x0. Then, when this 0x0 data is sent to the firmware, the firmware gives
back a failure response 0xc00000bb
[ 8658.340984] mt7996e 0000:03:00.0: get-rate-power-limits: Could not find node.
[ 8658.340988] mt7996e 0000:03:00.0: set-txpower-sku, tx_power: 36
[ 8658.341127] mt7996e 0000:03:00.0: mcu-parse-response, firmware returned failure code: 0xc00000bb.
Do we need to add code to not even send the mcu command if the per-mode txpower tables
cannot be found?
Or can we calculate the values to some useful default in that case?
For reference, here is my debug patch:
