I am removing "SRU" from the bug title since this needs to be fixed in
Ubuntu's development release before we are allowed to publish an SRU for
it. So this bug will track getting this update into questing.

Title:
  New upstream 2.11 release for Wi-Fi 7 support

Status in wpa package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  [Impact]
  To support the Wi-Fi 7 features, we need to upgrade wpa_supplicant to 2.11, the latest upstream stable release.

  [Test case]
  The upgrade version should not break legacy Wi-Fi functions, we should test on all Wi-Fi chips as much as possible.

  
  [Where problem could occur]
  This is a new stable release which is required by Wi-Fi 7. The risk is high that we might break existing Wi-Fi solutions.

  [Additional information]
  Upstream has released 2.11 on 2024-07-20 [1].
  It provides more features which are required by Wi-Fi 7.
