mwl8k: don't overwrite regulatory settings on fw reload
Currently the caps are parsed on every firmware reload, causing any
channel flags to be cleared.
When there is a firmware to interface mode mismatch, the triggered
firmware reload causes a reset of the regulatory settings, causing all
channels to become available:
root@openrouter:/# iw phy phy0 info
Wiphy phy0
Band 1:

Frequencies:
* 2412 MHz [1] (0.0 dBm)

To prevent this, only parse the caps on the first firmware load during
hardware probe, and store them locally to know we have already parsed
them.
