wifi: mac80211: Convert color collision detection to wiphy work

Call to ieee80211_color_collision_detection_work() needs wiphy lock to
be held (see lockdep assert in cfg80211_bss_color_notify()). Not locking
wiphy causes the following lockdep error:

The wiphy lock cannot be taken directly from color collision detection
delayed work (ieee80211_color_collision_detection_work()) because this
work is cancel_delayed_work_sync() under this wiphy lock causing a
potential deadlock( see [0] for details).

To fix that ieee80211_color_collision_detection_work() could be
converted to a wiphy work and cancel_delayed_work_sync() can be simply
replaced by wiphy_delayed_work_cancel() serving the same purpose under
wiphy lock.

This could potentially fix [1].
