nl80211: Hide deauth event due to forced deauth-during-auth

Browse source 
If NL80211_CMD_AUTHENTICATE fails due to exiting authentication, forced
deauthentication is used to clear cfg80211 start and a new
authentication command is retried. This resulted in an extra
disconnection event getting delivered to the core wpa_supplicant code
and that could end up confusing state there, e.g., by clearing
connection parameters like wpa_s->key_mgmt and preventing the following
association from reaching proper COMPLETED state with open networks.

Fix this by hiding the unnecessary disconnection event when using the
deauth-for-auth workaround.
