ath9k, ath10k(-ct): move spectral scan support under a separate config symbol
Backport patches that separate spectral scan support from general debugfs
support of ath9k/ath10k; this allows to remove the dependency on
KERNEL_RELAY from these driver packages even with debugfs enabled and
avoids the memory footprint of the relay buffers allocated by ath9k/ath10k
even when they aren't used at all.

The KERNEL_RELAY dependency is moved to a new config symbol that enables
spectral scan support in these drivers.

Subject: [PATCH 1/2] ath9k: move spectral scan support under a separate config
symbol
At the moment, spectral scan support, and with it RELAY, is always enabled
with ATH9K[_HTC]_DEBUGFS. Spectral scan support is currently the only user
of RELAY in ath9k, and it unconditionally reserves a relay channel.
Having debugfs support in ath9k is often useful even on very small embedded
routers, where we'd rather like to avoid the code size and RAM usage of the
relay support.
