mac80211: update to version 6.18
Drop all upstreamed patch and refresh all affected patch.

Minor changes were needed to the
350-mac80211-allow-scanning-while-on-radar-channel due to changes in
6.18.

Also some changes were needed to downstream patch due to upstream commit
b74947b4f6ff ("wifi: cfg80211/mac80211: Add support to get radio index")

Subject: [PATCH] ath11k: support setting FW memory mode via DT
ath11k is really memory intensive for devices with less that 1GB of RAM,
so lets allow saving a significant amount of memory by setting the FW to
Mode-1 via DTS for devices that need it.
However the drawback is reduced number of VDEV-s and peers which is a
reasonable tradeoff.
Mode-2 allows for further reduction, but it has further restrictions.
While we are here, lets add a print to be able to easily determine what
FW memory mode is being used.
