Under the following conditions IWD can accidentally trigger a second
roam scan while one is already in progress:
- A low RSSI condition is met. This starts the roam rearm timer.
- A packet loss condition is met, which triggers a roam scan.
- The roam rearm timer fires and starts another roam scan while
also overwriting the first roam scan ID.
- Then, if IWD gets disconnected the overwritten roam scan gets
canceled, and the roam state is cleared which NULL's
station->connected_network.
- The initial roam scan results then come in with the assumption
that IWD is still connected which results in a crash trying to
reference station->connected_network.
This can be fixed by adding a station_cannot_roam check in the rearm
timer. If IWD is already doing a roam scan station->preparing_roam
should be set which will cause it to return true and stop any further
action.

If station has already started FT ensure station_cannot_roam takes
that into account. Since the state has not yet changed it must also
check if the FT work ID is set.

Past commits should address any potential problems of the timer
firing during FT, but its still good practice to cancel the timer
once it is no longer needed, i.e. once FT has started.
