nl80211: Fix handling of highest supported authentication algorithm

NL80211_AUTHTYPE_MAX represents the highest valid authentication
algorithm enum value, not an invalid or out-of-range value. The previous
logic for auth type boundary check incorrectly treats this value as
invalid, resulting in failures when the highest supported authentication
type is used during authentication frame exchange.

To fix this, update the validation logic to correctly recognize all
defined authentication algorithm enum values, including the last one,
and only reject values outside the defined range.
