wifi: cfg80211: call reg_call_notifier on beacon hints
Currently the channel property updates are not propagated to driver. This causes issues in the discovery of hidden SSIDs and fails to connect to them. This change defines a new wiphy flag which when enabled by vendor driver, the reg_call_notifier callback will be trigger on beacon hints. This ensures that the channel property changes are visible to the vendor driver. The vendor changes the channels for active scans. This fixes the discovery issue of hidden SSID.
