wifi: mac80211: always send regulatory connectivity element

Browse Source 
The spec says to include it if the STA is "capable of operating
as STA 6G", which is a bit unclear because this is defined at a
STA level and not at the MLD level or so, but WFA requires this
to be included. Either way, the element is completely advisory
and intended mostly for debugging (and perhaps a bit steering),
so just include it in association request all the time if 6 GHz
is supported.

To determine what exactly to include, check all the channels
that aren't disabled. That way, it ends up being a lowest
common denominator, which is most useful for steering etc.
