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.
