wifi: mac80211: recalculate rx_nss on IBSS peer capability update

Browse Source 
When IBSS peer capabilities change, rates_updated is set to true in
ieee80211_update_sta_info(), but rx_nss is never recalculated.
For peers with HT/VHT, this leaves rx_nss at 0 instead of the
correct value, causing drivers to use incorrect rate scaling
parameters.

The root cause is that the commit below moved NSS initialisation
out of rate_control_rate_init() into explicit call sites, but
missing the rates_updated path in ieee80211_update_sta_info().

Fix this by calling ieee80211_sta_init_nss_bw_capa() before
rate_control_rate_init() when peer capabilities are updated,
consistent with the other IBSS call sites added by that commit.
