mt76x2: apply coverage class on slot time too

According to 802.11-2007 17.3.8.6 (slot time), the slot time should be increased by 3 us * coverage class. Taking into account coverage class in slot time configuration allows to increase by an order of magnitude the throughput on a 4Km link in a noisy environment Tested-by: Luca Bisti <luca.bisti@gmail.com> Tested-by: Gaetano Catalli <gaetano.catalli@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Lorenzo Bianconi <lorenzo.bianconi@redhat.com>
