wifi: ath12k: Avoid CPU busy-wait by handling VDEV_STAT and BCN_STAT

When the ath12k driver is built without CONFIG_ATH12K_DEBUG, the
recently refactored stats code can cause any user space application
(such at NetworkManager) to consume 100% CPU for 3 seconds, every time
stats are read.

Commit 'b8a0d83fe4c7 ("wifi: ath12k: move firmware stats out of
debugfs")' moved ath12k_debugfs_fw_stats_request() out of debugfs, by
merging the additional logic into ath12k_mac_get_fw_stats().

Among the added responsibility of ath12k_mac_get_fw_stats() was the
busy-wait for `fw_stats_done`.

Signalling of `fw_stats_done` happens when one of the
WMI_REQUEST_PDEV_STAT, WMI_REQUEST_VDEV_STAT, and WMI_REQUEST_BCN_STAT
messages are received, but the handling of the latter two commands remained
in the debugfs code. As `fw_stats_done` isn't signalled, the calling
processes will spin until the timeout (3 seconds) is reached.

Moving the handling of these two additional responses out of debugfs
resolves the issue.
