wlcore: add stop reason bitmap for waking/starting queues
Allow the driver to wake/stop the queues for multiple reasons. A queue is started when no stop-reasons exist. Convert all wake/stop queue calls to use the new API. Before, a stopped queue was almost synonymous a high-watermark on Tx. Remove a bit of code in wl12xx_tx_reset() that relied on it. Internal packets arriving from mac80211 are also discarded when a queue is stopped. A notable exception to this is the watermark reason, which is a "soft"-stop reason. We allow traffic to gradually come to a halt, but we don't mind spurious packets here and there. This is merely a flow regulation mechanism.
