Add new QCA vendor attribute for WLAN Latency Module (WLM)

A new vendor attribute QCA_WLAN_VENDOR_ATTR_CONFIG_LATENCY_LEVEL is added
for vendor sub-command QCA_NL80211_VENDOR_SUBCMD_SET_WIFI_CONFIGURATION.
This attribute is for setting the level of WLM.

* There will be various of Wi-Fi functionality like scan/roaming/adaptive
* power saving which would causing data exchange out of service, this
* would be a big impact on latency. For latency sensitive applications over
* Wi-Fi are intolerant to such operations and thus would configure them
* to meet their respective needs. It is well understood by such applications
* that altering the default behavior would degrade the Wi-Fi functionality
* w.r.t the above pointed WLAN operations.
*
* @QCA_WLAN_VENDOR_ATTR_CONFIG_LATENCY_LEVEL_NORMAL:
* Default WLAN operation level which throughput orientated.
* @QCA_WLAN_VENDOR_ATTR_CONFIG_LATENCY_LEVEL_MODERATE:
* Use moderate level to improve latency by limit scan duration.
* @QCA_WLAN_VENDOR_ATTR_CONFIG_LATENCY_LEVEL_LOW:
* Use low latency level to benifit application like concurrent
* downloading or video streaming via constraint scan/adaptive PS.
* @QCA_WLAN_VENDOR_ATTR_CONFIG_LATENCY_LEVEL_ULTRALOW:
* Use ultra low latency level to benefit for gaming/voice
* application via constraint scan/roaming/adaptive PS.
