nl80211: reduce non-split wiphy dump size
When wiphy dumps cannot be split, such as in events or with
older userspace that doesn't support it, the size can today
be too big.
Reduce it, by doing two things:
1) remove data that couldn't have been present before the
split capability was introduced since it's new, such as
HE capabilities
2) as suggested by Martin Willi, remove management frame
subtypes from the split dumps, as just (1) isn't even
enough due to other new code capabilities. This is fine
as old consumers (really just wpa_supplicant) didn't
check this data before they got support for split dumps.
