iwd 3.3: Fix issue with handling External Authentication
Summary
The Embedded Linux* Library (ELL) provides core, low-level functionality for
system daemons. It typically has no dependencies other than the Linux kernel, C
standard library, and libdl (for dynamic linking). While ELL is designed to be
efficient and compact enough for use on embedded Linux platforms, it is not
limited to resource-constrained systems.
Update Information:
iwd 3.3: Fix issue with handling External Authentication. iwd 3.2: Fix issue with GCC 15 and -std=c23 build errors. Add support for using PMKSA over SAE if available. Add support for HighUtilization/StationCount thresholds. Add support for disabling Multicast RX option. ell 0.71: Fix issue with GCC 15 and -std=c23 build errors. ell 0.70: Add support for helper function for safe memcpy.
