mac80211: set basic rates earlier
The authentication and association handshake already happens in the context of the new BSS, and the basic rates are needed at least for the ACK response frame to the authentication or association response frames. Therefore the basic rates should already be configured into the driver when those frames are sent. Change the logic to set up the basic rates in the connection preparation that happens for authentication and association (if needed).
