ath10k-ct: fix max antenna gain unit
Most of the txpower for the ath10k firmware is stored as twicepower (0.5 dB steps). This isn't the case for max_antenna_gain - which is still expected by the firmware as dB. The firmware is converting it from dB to the internal (twicepower) representation when it calculates the limits of a channel. This can be seen in tpc_stats when configuring "12" as max_antenna_gain. Instead of the expected 12 (6 dB), the tpc_stats shows 24 (12 dB). Tested on QCA9888 and IPQ4019 with firmware 10.4-3.5.3-00057. Signed-off-by: Sven Eckelmann <sven@narfation.org>

+The firmware is converting it from dB to the internal (twicepower)

+Tested on QCA9888 and IPQ4019 with firmware 10.4-3.5.3-00057.
