Currently ath12k_mac_setup_ht_vht_cap() incorrectly assumes that QCN9274
radios with 6GHz band can't support 5GHz as well. This prevents the
addition of HT and VHT capabilities for the 5GHz band. Since QCN9274 is
capable of operating in multiple bands, remove the 6GHz support check and
exception for single_pdev_only (i.e. WCN7850).

Tested-on: QCN9274 hw2.0 PCI WLAN.WBE.1.4.1-00199-QCAHKSWPL_SILICONZ-1

Multi-band configuration is supported for scan radio only even that requires
additional driver changes.
