Wifi connection configured wrongly if device has to be connected to Wifi AP configured with WPA2 + WPA3

According to this document https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/wpa_supplicant#Connections_to_pure_WPA3-SAE_access_points chapter 6.6 and 6.7 armbian-config needs to configure wpasupplicant.conf differently than in 22.04 bullseye.

For pure WPA3 ssid="network SSID" key_mgmt=SAE sae_password="the.literal.wifi.password" ieee80211w=2

For mixed WPA2/WPA3 ssid="network SSID" key_mgmt=WPA-PSK-SHA256 psk=xxx ieee80211w=2

However in mixed mode, my device worked also using the WPA3 (SAE) settings. This depends on the Wifi adapter. If it supports SAE, it will work.

If the AP is configured for WPA2 only it will also work properly.

The current configuration makes it impossible to configure Wifi if the router is in WPA2/WPA3 mode.
