wifi: nl80211/cfg80211: clarify periodic FTM parameters for non-EDCA based ranging
Periodic FTM request attributes are defined based on the periodic
parameters used in EDCA-based ranging negotiation. However, non-EDCA
based ranging (trigger-based/non-trigger-based) does not include
periodic parameters in the negotiation protocol, even though upper
layers may still request periodic measurements.
Clarify the semantics of periodic ranging attributes when used with
non-EDCA based ranging.
