Control socket for each link BSS of MLD currently needs to be in a separate
directory since interface name is same for all links in an AP MLD. Hence
once the first link comes up, rest of links will not come up if using the
same control interface directory.

Hence, introduce link level sockets. Each link will use socket with name
"<interface>_link<link id>" under given control interface directory.

Also, introduce a MLD level socket with name "<interface>" in the same
directory. This will help to route the commands to underlying links if
required as well as it will keep backwards compatibility with other
applications trying to find "<interface>" file in the control interface
directory.

  ctrl_iface: MLO: introduce MLD level socket
  hostapd_cli: MLO: pass 'LINKID' in the command
  hostapd_cli: MLO: add status command for MLD socket
  tests: MLO: use link ID to access control sockets
  tests: MLO: add MLD socket connectivity test case

Karthikeyan Kathirvel (1):
  ctrl_iface: create link based hapd control sockets
---
v4: * Moved LINKID <link id> as prefix in MLD level socket command.
    * os_snprintf() and os_snprintf_error() usage wherever needed.
    * CONFIG_IEEE8021BE guard usage changes to avoid duplicate statements.

v3: * Email correction in [0] and [6].

v2: * Rebased on ToT. No conflicts in [1-4].
    * Fixed newly added EHT MLO and RSN Override sim test cases. [5/6]
