Don't pass our configured SSID to iwm(4) firmware during a background scan.
Apparently this can cause a firmware crash during a TX command on 7265 devices.
Why this happens is unclear.

Problem reported and workaround tested by trondd on bugs@
I have verified that hidden SSID APs still work, though we won't be able to
seamlessly roam between them anymore. Seems like a fair trade-off for now.
