Subject: [PATCH v3] mt76: use AC specific reorder timeout

Before this patch, mt76 handled rx traffic for all TIDs equally,
when released from reorder buffer early. This patch uses an AC specific
reorder timeout, in order to release partial aggregated frames for voice
or video ACs earlier. For example, ath10k also uses AC specific reorder
timeouts (reported by firmware in that case).

In the current implementation, voice traffic always runs without
aggregation, so it does not need special timeout handling.

Given that tid values 0-3 are BE/BK and you use the same timeout for
those, you could simplify this function to:
return HZ / (tidno >= 4 ? 25 : 10);
