wifi: ath12k: unassign arvif on scan vdev create failure

During scan and remain-on-channel requests, a scan link vif (arvif) is
assigned and a temporary vdev is created. If vdev creation fails, the
assigned arvif is left attached until the virtual interface is removed,
leaving a stale link in ahvif.

Fix this by freeing the stale arvif and resetting the corresponding link in
ahvif by calling ath12k_mac_unassign_link_vif() when vdev creation fails.

While at it, propagate the actual error code from ath12k_mac_vdev_create()
instead of returning -EINVAL in ath12k_mac_initiate_hw_scan().

Tested-on: QCN9274 hw2.0 PCI WLAN.WBE.1.4.1-00199-QCAHKSWPL_SILICONZ-1
