mesh: Check remote peer HT Operation element

The remote mesh STA which had configuration disable_ht40=1 could have HT
Capabilities element which includes Supported Channel Width Set = 1
(both 20 MHz and 40 MHz operation is supported) even though it had HT
Operation element which includes STA Channel Width = 0 (20 MHz channel
width only). Previously, local peer recognized such a remote peer as 40
MHz band width enabled STA because local peer only checked HT
Capabilities element. This could cause disconnection between
disable_ht40=1 mesh STA and disable_ht40=0 mesh STA. They could
establish a mesh BSS but could not ping with ath9k_htc device. This
commit fixes the issue by refering HT Operation element.
