OWE: Remove check for unexpected DH Parameter IE use with other AKMs

While the Diffie-Hellman Parameter element is defined in RFC 8110
explicitly for use witht he OWE AKM, it has now been proposed to be used
with another AKM (DPP). Should any other AKM be extended in similar
manner in the future, the check against unexpected use could result in
additional interoperability issues. Remove that and instead, ignore the
unexpected Diffie-Hellman Parameter element if it is included in
(Re)Association Request frame when any other AKM is negotiated.
