wifi: wilc1000: use SRCU instead of RCU for vif list traversal
Enabling CONFIG_PROVE_RCU_LIST raises many warnings in wilc driver, even on some places already protected by a read critical section. An example of such case is in wilc_get_available_idx: ============================= WARNING: suspicious RCU usage 6.8.0-rc1+ #32 Not tainted ----------------------------- drivers/net/wireless/microchip/wilc1000/netdev.c:944 RCU-list traversed in non-reader section!!

Fix the warning by using corresponding SRCU read lock/unlock APIs. While doing so, since we always manipulate the same list (managed through a pointer embedded in struct_wilc), add a macro to reduce the corresponding boilerplate in each call site.
