mac80211: make station hash table max_size configurable

Allow debug builds to configure the station hash table maximum size in order to run with hash collisions in limited scenarios such as hwsim testing. The default remains 0 which effectively means no limit. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
