wifi: mac80211: Add 802.3 multicast encapsulation offload support

mac80211 converts 802.3 multicast packets to 802.11 format
before driver TX, even when Ethernet encapsulation offload
is enabled. This prevents drivers that support multicast
Ethernet encapsulation offload from receiving frames in
native 802.3 format.

Introduce the IEEE80211_OFFLOAD_ENCAP_MCAST flag to bypass the
802.11 encapsulation step and pass the multicast packet to the
driver in 802.3 format. Drivers that support multicast Ethernet
encapsulation offload can advertise this flag.

Disable multicast encapsulation offload in MLO case for drivers not
advertising MLO_MCAST_MULTI_LINK_TX support for AP mode and for
3-address AP_VLAN multicast packets.
