nl80211: Ignore disconnect event in case of locally generated request

Browse source 
Previously, there could be two disconnection events in core
wpa_supplicant when going through a case of wpa_supplicant-requested
disconnection with a driver that implements SME internally. This could
result in undesired behavior when a disconnection is followed by a new
connection attempt before the extra event has been received (e.g.,
during fast reassoc or WPS provisioning). Avoid such issues by ignoring
locally generated disconnect events after requesting cfg80211 to
disconnect.

This makes the previously used ignore_next_local_disconnect more
consistent by setting the variable within
wpa_driver_nl80211_disconnect() so that both callers get the same
behavior.
