wifi: rtlwifi: rtl8821ae: Fix media status report
RTL8821AE is stuck transmitting at the lowest rate allowed by the rate mask. This is because the firmware doesn't know the device is connected to a network. Fix the macros SET_H2CCMD_MSRRPT_PARM_OPMODE and SET_H2CCMD_MSRRPT_PARM_MACID_IND to work on the first byte of __cmd, not the second. Now the firmware is correctly notified when the device is connected to a network and it activates the rate control.
