wifi: mac80211: check basic rates validity in sta_link_apply_parameters

Browse source 
When userspace sets supported rates for a new station via
NL80211_CMD_NEW_STATION, it might send a list that's empty
or contains only invalid values. Currently, we process these
values in sta_link_apply_parameters() without checking the result of
ieee80211_parse_bitrates(), which can lead to an empty rates bitmap.

A similar issue was addressed for NL80211_CMD_SET_BSS in commit
ce04abc3fc ("wifi: mac80211: check basic rates validity").
This patch applies the same approach in sta_link_apply_parameters()
for NL80211_CMD_NEW_STATION, ensuring there is at least one valid
rate by inspecting the result of ieee80211_parse_bitrates().

Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with Syzkaller.
