This patch updates the driver to match the latest Realtek release, and
it is an important step in getting the internal code source at Realtek to match
the code in the kernel. The primary reason for this is to make it easier for
Realtek to maintain the kernel source without requiring an intermediate like me.
In this process of merging the two source repositories, there are a lot
of changes in both, and this commit is rather large.

Commit a619d1abe2 leads to the following static checker warning:
drivers/net/wireless/rtlwifi/rtl8723be/phy.c:667 _rtl8723be_store_tx_power_by_rate()
error: buffer overflow 'rtlphy->tx_power_by_rate_offset[band]' 4 <= 5
This warning arises because the code is testing the indices for the wrong maximum
values. In addition, the tests merely putput a warning, and then procedes to
corrupt memory. With this change, any such invalid memory access is avoided.
