wifi: cfg80211: add NL80211_CMD_NAN_SET_NON_EVAC_CHANNELS

Add a new NL80211_CMD_NAN_SET_NON_EVAC_CHANNELS command that lets user
space mark a set of NAN channels as non-evacuable. The command carries
the channels as nested NL80211_ATTR_NAN_CHANNEL attributes (chandef
only) and replaces the entire set of non-evacuable channels; channels
not included in the list become evacuable again.

All provided channels must already exist in the current local schedule,
otherwise -ENOENT is returned. The command is rejected with -EBUSY
while a schedule update is pending.

This prevents the kernel from evacuating channels that carry NDC or
immutable schedules, so evacuating these channels would break existing
NDP connections.
