Firmware blocks all data traffic until the key is plumbed. But, with
software encryption mode, key is never plumbed to firmware. Due to this,
a traffic failure in software encryption mode has been observed. Hence,
firmware has introduced a flag to differentiate software encryption
mode. This flag can be passed during vdev_start command.

Enable WMI_VDEV_START_HW_ENCRYPTION_DISABLED flag in vdev_start command
to notify firmware to disable hardware encryption for a vdev. This is set
if raw mode software encryption is enabled.

Tested-on: IPQ8074 hw2.0 AHB WLAN.HK.2.4.0.1-01421-QCAHKSWPL_SILICONZ-1
