Felix Fietkau 137921ab08 hostapd: ubus: give an AP MLD one object that outlives its links
The links of an AP MLD share one interface name. Each asked for the
object of that name, the first link got it, and the others failed. The
object, its subscribers, and the state a subscriber set through it
belonged to that one link:

- the object went away with that link, although other links remained,
  and a subscriber took the removal for the end of the AP MLD and of
  every station on it;
- notify_response, the BSS Transition Management Query answer flag and
  the bans applied to that link only, while each link read its own;
- bss_mgmt_enable and the rrm_nr methods changed the capabilities and
  the neighbor report database of that link only.

Keep one object per AP MLD, from its first link to its last. A method
runs on a link that is there: the AP MLD's first link once its setup
has added it to the object, or, once the last link has left the AP MLD
and before its BSS frees the object, a link the object still counts. A
link is counted once. Notifications of every link go through it.
notify_response, the BTM query answer and the bans are the AP MLD's,
and every link reads them. bss_mgmt_enable, the implicit neighbor
report enable of the rrm_nr methods and rrm_nr_set apply to every
link, and a link that joins later takes the flags and the neighbor list
set before.

The methods that name a station act on the link that holds it:
get_clients lists the stations of every link, a non-AP MLD once with
the station of its association link, and rrm_beacon_req, rrm_lm_req
and update_airtime find the station on any link, as del_client and
bss_transition_request already did. They answered for the first link
only, and after that link left the AP MLD, for another one.
