wifi: wilc1000: prevent use-after-free on vif when cleaning up all interfaces

wilc_netdev_cleanup currently triggers a KASAN warning, which can be
observed on interface registration error path, or simply by
removing the module/unbinding device from driver:

echo spi0.1 > /sys/bus/spi/drivers/wilc1000_spi/unbind

David Mosberger-Tan initial investigation [1] showed that this
use-after-free is due to netdevice unregistration during vif list
traversal. When unregistering a net device, since the needs_free_netdev has
been set to true during registration, the netdevice object is also freed,
and as a consequence, the corresponding vif object too, since it is
attached to it as private netdevice data. The next occurrence of the loop
then tries to access freed vif pointer to the list to move forward in the
list.

Fix this use-after-free thanks to two mechanisms:
- navigate in the list with list_for_each_entry_safe, which allows to
  safely modify the list as we go through each element. For each element,
  remove it from the list with list_del_rcu
- make sure to wait for RCU grace period end after each vif removal to make
  sure it is safe to free the corresponding vif too (through
  unregister_netdev)

Since we are in a RCU "modifier" path (not a "reader" path), and because
such path is expected not to be concurrent to any other modifier (we are
using the vif_mutex lock), we do not need to use RCU list API, that's why
we can benefit from list_for_each_entry_safe.
