Fix EAP/WPS to PSK transition on reassociation in authenticator

A station may move from EAP/WPS key_mgmt to PSK using re-association. In
practice, this can happen most likely with WPS when the station runs
through the provisioning step (EAP/WPS) followed by PSK authentication.
If a deauthentication event is missed from the station for whatever
reason, the EAPOL authenticator state machine could have been left
running.

This can result in various issues, including unexpected disconnection of
the station while both the 4-way handshake and EAPOL authenticator state
machines (EAP) are running at the same time when the supplicant is
trying to use PSK. Fix this by explicitly clearing EAPOL authenticator
state machine on (re)association if the new association does not use it.
