wifi: ath12k: fix encrypted EAPOL TX in encap offload mode

When a vif operates with IEEE80211_OFFLOAD_ENCAP_ENABLED,
mac80211 delivers EAPOL frames to ath12k in native-WiFi format.

Unencrypted EAPOL frames used during the initial 4-way
handshake are already handled through the existing
is_diff_encap path. However, EAPOL frames transmitted during
GTK rekeying carry ATH12K_SKB_CIPHER_SET and continue through
the normal native-WiFi transmit path.

Firmware encryption requires RAW frames with cipher-specific IV and ICV
fields correctly provisioned in the skb. Passing encrypted EAPOL frames
in native-WiFi format results in incorrect IV provisioning, leading to
an invalid ICV and frame drop.

Fix this by detecting the EAPOL frames that need HW encryption and
converting them to firmware-encrypted RAW frames before transmission.
Reserve IV space after the MAC header, append ICV space at the tail,
select the appropriate firmware encryption type and request
firmware-side encryption.

Introduce ath12k_dp_tx_crypto_iv_len() and ath12k_dp_tx_crypto_icv_len()
helpers in the TX path to obtain cipher-specific IV and ICV lengths.

Tested-on: QCN9274 hw2.0 PCI WLAN.WBE.1.6-01270-QCAHKSWPL_SILICONZ-1
