The SDIO HCI implementation needs to know when the MAC is powered on.
This is needed because 32-bit register access has to be split into 4x
8-bit register access when the MAC is not fully powered on or while
powering off. When the MAC is powered on 32-bit register access can be
used to reduce the number of transfers but splitting into 4x 8-bit
register access still works in that case.

During the power on sequence is how RTW_FLAG_POWERON is only set when
the power on sequence has completed successfully. During power off
however RTW_FLAG_POWERON is set. This means that the upcoming SDIO HCI
implementation does not know that it has to use 4x 8-bit register
accessors. Clear the RTW_FLAG_POWERON flag early when powering off the
MAC so the whole power off sequence is processed with RTW_FLAG_POWERON
unset. This will make it possible to use the RTW_FLAG_POWERON flag in
the upcoming SDIO HCI implementation.

Note that a failure in rtw_pwr_seq_parser() while applying
chip->pwr_off_seq can theoretically result in the RTW_FLAG_POWERON
flag being cleared while the chip is still powered on. However,
depending on when the failure occurs in the power off sequence the
chip may be on or off. Even the original approach of clearing
RTW_FLAG_POWERON only when the power off sequence has been applied
successfully could end up in some corner case where the chip is
powered off but RTW_FLAG_POWERON was not cleared.

Changes since v3:
- added Ping-Ke's reviewed-by (thank you!)

Changes since v2:
- improve patch description about corner cases when clearing
  RTW_FLAG_POWERON

Changes since v1:
- This replaces a previous patch called "rtw88: hci: Add an optional
  power_switch() callback to rtw_hci_ops" which added a new callback
  to the HCI ops.
