Currently the only way a scan can be split is if the request does
not specify any frequencies, implying the request should scan the
entire spectrum. This allows the scan logic to issue an extra
request if 6GHz becomes available during the 2.4 or 5GHz scans.
This restriction was somewhat arbitrary and done to let periodic
scans pick up 6GHz APs through a single scan request.

But now with the addition of allowing user-disabled bands
periodic scans will need to specify a frequency list in case a
given band has been disabled. This will break the scan splitting
code which is why this prep work is being done.

The main difference now is the original scan frequencies are
tracked with the scan request. The reason for this is so if a
request comes in with a limited set of 6GHz frequences IWD won't
end up scanning the full 6GHz spectrum later on.

v2:
 * Use _auto_ for allowed frequencies in scan_cmds_add()

I went ahead and applied, but a quick comment:

You're using allowed here for the sole purpose of checking whether 6G was 
allowed by the regdom.  This is sort of an expensive operation and we should 
really just have a getter for this.  Would make the code easier to understand as 
well.

Maybe consider using something like wiphy_band_is_disabled() instead?

Same situation here, you're not really using allowed / freqs_6ghz for anything.
