[PATCH v2] wpa-supplicant: enable 802.11be, MBO, OWE, and SuiteB support

[Miaoqing Pan]

wpa_supplicant has supported IEEE 802.11be (Wi-Fi 7) for over three
years. With growing market demand for Wi-Fi 7, it is now an
appropriate time to enable IEEE 802.11be Extremely High Throughput
(EHT) support - mainly for AP mode.

This patch also enables the following features in defconfig:
Opportunistic Wireless Encryption (OWE)
Suite B and Suite B 192
Multi Band Operation (MBO)

I was pointed out to this patch. Is there any reason why you don't
extend the previous line, which also patches the .config file?
