When no other user preference is specified, opt to use an operating
channel that allows 5 GHz band to be used rather than 2.4 GHz.
Previously, this was already done in practice for HT40 channels since no
such channel is enabled for P2P on 2.4 GHz. This commit extends this to
apply 5 GHz preference for 20 MHz channels as well.
