ath10k-ct: fix incorrect multicast/broadcast rate setting

Browse Source 
If no mcast_rate is set for the wifi-iface then there is no rate_idx (0)
set for the bss. This can break for example 5GHz meshpoint interfaces
because 0 maps to a CCK rate (11Mbit/s).

It must also be avoided that the ath10k-ct internal state for the rates is
not synced with the mac80211 rates state. Otherwise, the user specified
rate (e.g. a wifi-iface mcast_rate for a meshpoint interface) will only be
set on startup. And a short while after that, ath10k-ct specific code in
ath10k_check_apply_special_rates is missing a valid rate in its own
structures and is then recalculating a new default rate. This default rate
is in most situations not the requested rate.

Subject: ath10k: fix incorrect multicast/broadcast rate setting
Invalid rate code is sent to firmware when multicast rate value of 0 is
sent to driver indicating disabled case, causing broken mesh path.
so fix that.
Tested on QCA9984 with firmware 10.4-3.6.1-00827
Fixes: cd93b83ad92 ("ath10k: support for multicast rate control")

Subject: ath10k-ct: apply mac80211 rates to ath10k-ct rate state
The rates from mac80211 have to be copied to the state of ath10k-ct or
otherwise the ath10k_check_apply_special_rates function overwrites
them again with some default values. This breaks for example the
mcast_rate set for a wifi-iface.
