When userspace creates a new hwsim radio with both
HWSIM_ATTR_MULTI_RADIO and HWSIM_ATTR_SUPPORT_NAN_DEVICE,
hwsim_new_radio_nl() sets BIT(NL80211_IFTYPE_NAN_DATA) in
wiphy->interface_modes while configuring the wiphy with
n_radio > 1. This violates the invariant checked in
wiphy_register():

    (interface_modes & BIT(NL80211_IFTYPE_NAN_DATA)) &&
    (!nan_capa.phy.ht.ht_supported || n_radio > 1)

triggering a WARN reachable from userspace via genetlink.
With panic_on_warn this becomes a denial of service.

Refuse the combination at parse time with -EINVAL and an
extack message, matching the cfg80211 constraint that NAN
is not supported on multi-radio wiphys.
