The NoA duration for a GO is half the beacon interval
and a concurrent context like a STA can be active only
for that duration, before switching back to the GO's
operating channel.
Currently, when multiple beacons are missed, the dwell
time for the STA context is extended to improve the
chances of receiving a beacon. But the NoA is not updated
and this will cause problems since the GO is offline
for a period that is longer than the advertised duration.
Fix this by ensuring that the NoA is updated first before
extending the time slot for the STA context. Also make
sure that non-periodic NoA is used for a one-time, longer
absence period.

Clearing the offchannel duration value in the
scheduler unconditionally breaks NoA when
multiple contexts are active and an offchannel
request is deferred, for example, in a scan run.
Fix this by clearing the duration only if there
is no pending offchannel request.

* The index has to incremented only when advertising
a new NoA schedule.
* Switch to non-periodic NoA when starting a scan operation
and multiple channel contexts are active.
* Make sure that periodic NoA is advertised again when
scan ends. Since the offchannel timer moves the offchannel
state to IDLE after the GO operating channel becomes
active, use a flag "force_noa_update" to update the
NoA contents.

Scanning is curently broken when two channel contexts
are active. For example in a P2P-GO/STA setup, the
offchannel timer allows HZ / 10 to elapse before initiating
a switch to the next scan channel from the current operating
channel, which in this case would be the P2P-GO context.
But, the channel context timer might decide to switch
to the STA context when an SWBA comes early and a beacon
is sent out. Since pending offchannel requests are processed
in EVENT_BEACON_PREPARE, this causes inconsistent scanning.
Fix this by making sure that a context switch happens
before processing the pending offchannel request. This
also makes sure that active channel contexts will always
have higher priority than offchannel operations and the
scan sequence looks like this:
p2p-go, sta, p2p-go, offchannel, p2p-go, sta, p2p-go, offchannel,.....
The oper-channel is p2p-go, so the STA context has to
switch to p2p-go again before switching offchannel.

When multiple channel contexts are active, an offchannel
request will not be handled immediately, but will be
queued to be handled later. But, currently, the channel definition
is not copied to the local offchannel state. This
breaks operation like scanning when MCC is active.

Currently, different units are used for handling
sc->offchannel.duration. In scan mode, it contains jiffies and in RoC
mode, milliseconds is used. This causes confusion since in
ath_chanctx_switch(), TU_TO_USEC is used to determine the offchannel
duration, resulting in incorrect values. Fix this by using jiffies in
both modes.

The start time field in the NoA attribute needs to be
updated based on the TSF timer when an absence notification
is sent by the P2P GO. When two channel contexts are active,
continuous, cyclic NoA is announced by setting the count value to 255,
but the start time is updated only once, for one beacon and
the same value is sent in all subsequent beacons, even
though the timestamp keeps moving.
Fix this by removing the check for 'periodic_noa_duration'
and assign the interface's start_time/duration values directly
when there is more than one active context.
