nl80211: Set NL80211_ATTR_IFACE_SOCKET_OWNER for connect and associate

Browse source 
This allows kernel to force disconnection if something kills the
wpa_supplicant process in a manner that does not allow proper cleanup to
be performed. The association is not supposed to be allowed to continue
after process has ended since there are number of operations that
wpa_supplicant may need to do during the association.
