mac80211_hwsim: drop pending frames on stop



Syzbot reports that we may be able to get into a situation where
mac80211 has pending ACK frames on shutdown with hwsim. It appears
that the reason for this is that syzbot uses the wmediumd hooks to
intercept/injection frames, and may shut down hwsim, removing the
radio(s), while frames are pending in the air simulation.

Clean out the pending queue when the interface is stopped, after
this the frames can't be reported back to mac80211 properly anyway.
