iwlwifi: set VHT beamformee STS cap correctly

Browse Source 
It was set to zero which reflects support of a single STS.
Set according to the number of Rx antennas which correctly
reflects the number of STSs the STA can receive in a VHT NDP.
This improves beamforming and has been tested to improve Rx
throughput.
