Set interface state as inactive if mesh bringup fails

The STATUS command showed the interface state as SCANNING even if mesh
bringup fails. This incorrect interface status can mislead
scripts/applications that rely on interface status to bring up different
type of virtual interfaces (AP/MESH) on a single radio.

Fix this by setting the interface status as INACTIVE if mesh bringup
fails.
