wifi: mac80211_hwsim: avoid treating MCS as legacy rate index
Injected HT and VHT rates store an MCS value in rates[0].idx rather
than an index into the legacy bitrate table. hwsim nevertheless passes
these rates to ieee80211_get_tx_rate() while generating monitor frames
and timestamps.
A crafted injected frame can therefore read beyond the bitrate table.
If the resulting bitrate is zero, mac80211_hwsim_write_tsf() also
divides by zero, as observed by syzbot.
Use ieee80211_get_tx_rate() only for legacy rates. The existing fallback
continues to supply a conservative bitrate where hwsim does not yet
calculate MCS rates.
