[PATCH wireless-next] wifi: brcmfmac: allow opting into PM_MAX power management

While investigating high idle power consumption on a BCM4364, I found
that brcmfmac always selects PM_FAST when cfg80211 enables power saving.
This keeps the device responsive, but on this system it also kept the
platform latency-tolerance request low enough to prevent deeper package
idle states for most of the idle time.

PM_MAX is already part of the firmware interface, and brcmfmac uses it
while configuring WoWLAN. Using it during normal connected operation
changed the BCM4364 platform latency-tolerance request from 61,440 ns to
3,145,728 ns. In controlled 45-second idle samples, package C8 residency
increased from 6.48% to 20.36%. Several days of normal use also showed
lower battery drain. BCM4364 and BCM4377 have been tested without
observed connectivity or latency regressions.

PM_FAST has been selected since brcmfmac first entered staging in 2010,
and the commit history does not document why it was chosen. Cypress
carried an opt-in module parameter for PM_MAX downstream in 2018. Since
additional wake latency may still be undesirable on other devices or
workloads, changing the existing default would be risky.

A read-only max_pm module parameter makes PM_MAX available while leaving
PM_FAST as the default. PM_OFF remains in use when power saving is
disabled or the interface is a P2P client.
