Android: Set ctrl_iface client socket group (AID_WIFI) separately
Split chown() call in wpa_ctrl_open() and wpa_ctrl_open2() to allow the
group id to be set even if the process does not have privileges to
change the owner. This is needed for modules that need to communicate
with wpa_supplicant since without the group change, wpa_supplicant may
not have privileges to send the response to a control interface command.
