wifi-scripts: fix failing mesh setup with missing wpa_supplicant

The initialization of mesh interfaces currently fail when wpa_supplicant is not installed. This is due to the script calling the wpa_supplicant feature indicator without verifying wpa_supplicant is installed at all. To avoid failing, first check if wpa_supplicant is installed before determining the available featureset. Signed-off-by: David Bauer <[email protected]>
