Try to reconnect to the same BSS on recoverable disconnection

Browse source 
If the AP disconnects us with a reason code that indicates that it has
dropped the association, but could allow us to connect again, try to
reconnect to the same BSS without going through the full scan. This can
save quite a bit of time in some common use cases, e.g., when inactivity
timeout is used on the AP (and especially, when waking up from suspend
which has likely triggered some timeout on the AP).
