cfg80211: disallow more station changes
The following changes are invalid and should be
disallowed when a station already exists:
* supported rates changes, except for TDLS peers
* listen interval changes
* HT capability changes
Disallow them and also update a mac80211 comment
explaining how they would be racy.
