iwlwifi: mvm: add LQM vendor command and notification
LQM stands for Link Quality Measurement. The firmware will collect a defined set of statitics (see the notification for details) that allow to know how busy the medium is. The driver issues a request to the firmware that includes the duration of the measurement (the firmware needs to be on channel for that amount of time) and the timeout (in case the firmware has a lot of offchannel activities). If the timeout elapses, the firmware will send partial results which are still valuable. In case of disassociation / channel switch and alike, the driver is in charge of stopping the measurements and the firmware will reply with partial results. The user space API for now is debugfs only and will be implmemented in an upcoming patch.
