iwlwifi: mvm: fix mac80211 queue tracking



In the driver, we track which hardware queue is associated with
which mac80211 "hw_queue", in order to be able to stop and wake
it. When moving these bitmaps out of the queue_info structures,
the type of the bitmap was erroneously changed from u32 to u8,
presumably in order to save memory.

Turns out that u32 isn't needed, because the highest queue we
can ever tell mac80211 is always < 16, but a u16 definitely is
needed, queues >=8 do happen.

While at it, throw a BUILD_BUG_ON() into the place where we set
the limit (mvm->first_agg_queue) and a warning when it actually
gets put into the bitmap.

The consequence of this bug is that full HW queues associated
with such a too-high mac80211 number never stop higher layer
queues when full, and thus would simply drop all packets that
couldn't be enqueued to the hardware queue.
