wifi: iwlwifi: mvm: remove per-STA MFP setting



When we first add the STA before sending an authentication
frame this is false. However, in some cases such as FT or
certainly in MLO link switch scenarios, it will be true.

If it happens to be true, it causes a firmware assert (in
LMAC, 0x2528), because the same bit is used by the firmware
for tracking this setting as well as for tracking if the
management key has been installed, and then we get this
assert from the firmware when installing the MFP key as it
thinks it has already been installed.

Remove the setting for now, until the firmware disentangles
the two. We should be able to set it, in fact we should be
setting it speculatively before authentication/association,
to avoid processing management frames that should have been
protected/encrypted before the key is set.
