Make sense.

The major purpose of set_addr_slot_status_mask() is that reduce code
change. There are already address alloc/free by using I3C_ADDR_SLOT_FREE.

we don't want i3c_bus_set_addr_slot_status() touch bit
I3C_ADDR_SLOT_EXT_DESIRED since it was init at scan dts.

There are 18 place, using i3c_bus_set_addr_slot_status(), but we only need
touch I3C_ADDR_SLOT_EXT_DESIRED bit when scan dts.
