patches/driver/bes2600: mirror besser series (closes #2)

Mirrors all 30 BES2600 patch series from marfrit/besser/patches/ into
the kernel-agent scope-tagged tree under patches/driver/bes2600/.
15 base series + 15 -danctnix siblings = 45 .patch files including
cover letters.

Per-series promotion eligibility tracked in the README (default
unset → ka-promote asks before including in a build). Markus to
update as series mature.

DKMS-to-in-tree transition path documented (drop bes2600-dkms
once series lands in mainline / DanctNIX base).

Cumulative-patch ordering caveat captured: existing order is NOT
alphabetical (A,B,C v3,F,G,D,E,C2,c5.x,c6.x,c7,H). ka-promote
needs an explicit apply_order field, not a series-name sort.
Surface when fleet/ohm.yaml lands in #5.

Acceptance criteria from #2:
  [x] All series present under driver/bes2600/
  [x] Promotion eligibility per series (table in README, defaults unset for Markus to fill)
  [ ] Manifest for ohm references driver:bes2600 scope (deferred to #5)
  [x] DKMS-to-in-tree transition path documented

Subject: [PATCH] bes2600: gate device LP-mode entry on successful per-VIF
firmware handshake
bes2600_pwr_enter_lp_mode() drives the transition to low-power for each
associated STA VIF: it pushes wsm_set_pm(), waits up to 5 seconds on
pm_enter_cmpl for the firmware to acknowledge, then unconditionally
calls bes2600_pwr_device_enter_lp_mode() to drop the device end of the
bus.
Two bugs:
1. A failed wsm_set_pm() only logs an error, then still falls into
wait_for_completion_timeout() on a completion the firmware will
never post (the set-mode command never reached it). The loop
therefore always blocks the full 5 s, logs a second error, and
proceeds.
2. A genuine wait-timeout (firmware received the set-mode command but
never posted the indication) also only logs a warning. The code
then drops to bes2600_pwr_device_enter_lp_mode(), handing the
device subsystem an inconsistent view of mac-layer state.
On PineTab2 (BES2600WM + RK3566) the second bug is the recurring
root-cause of the 'bes2600_pwr_enter_lp_mode, wait pm ind timeout'
message flooding dmesg every 5-10 s when the interface is associated
and idle. Sending the device to LP in that state cascades into the
SDIO TX path as the 'bes_sdio_memcpy_to_io_helper / sdio_tx_work'
WARN splat.
Fix:
- Add a 'timeouts' counter; bump it on both failure paths.
- Skip the wait_for_completion entirely when wsm_set_pm() failed
(there is no completion to wait for).
- Only call bes2600_pwr_device_enter_lp_mode() when every per-VIF
handshake reached firmware-ACKed completion; otherwise return
-ETIMEDOUT and leave the device in its current power state.
Tested-on: PineTab2 running linux-pinetab2 6.19.10-danctnix1-1.
Post-patch the handshake still fails on this particular firmware
revision (separate root-cause investigation outside this patch), but
the driver now returns -ETIMEDOUT cleanly instead of flooding dmesg
and destabilising the SDIO path.
