wifi: ieee80211: Do not open-code qos address offsets

When building with -Wstringop-overflow, GCC's KASAN implementation does
not correctly perform bounds checking within some complex structures
when faced with literal offsets, and can get very confused. For example,
this warning is seen due to literal offsets into sturct ieee80211_hdr
that may or may not be large enough:

drivers/net/wireless/intel/iwlwifi/mvm/rxmq.c: In function 'iwl_mvm_rx_mpdu_mq':
drivers/net/wireless/intel/iwlwifi/mvm/rxmq.c:2022:29: warning: writing 1 byte into a region of size 0 [-Wstringop-overflow=]
 2022 |                         *qc &= ~IEEE80211_QOS_CTL_A_MSDU_PRESENT;
In file included from drivers/net/wireless/intel/iwlwifi/mvm/fw-api.h:32,
                 from drivers/net/wireless/intel/iwlwifi/mvm/sta.h:15,
                 from drivers/net/wireless/intel/iwlwifi/mvm/mvm.h:27,
                 from drivers/net/wireless/intel/iwlwifi/mvm/rxmq.c:10:
drivers/net/wireless/intel/iwlwifi/mvm/../fw/api/rx.h:559:16: note: at offset [78, 166] into destination object 'mpdu_len' of size 2
  559 |         __le16 mpdu_len;
      |                ^~~~~~~~

Refactor ieee80211_get_qos_ctl() to avoid using literal offsets,
requiring the creation of the actual structure that is described in the
comments. Explicitly choose the desired offset, making the code more
human-readable too. This is one of the last remaining warning to fix
before enabling -Wstringop-overflow globally.
