wifi: ath12k: fix reusing m3 memory

During firmware recovery or suspend/resume, m3 memory could be reused if
the size of the new m3 binary is equal to or less than that of the
existing memory. There will be issues for the latter case, since
m3_mem->size will be updated with a smaller value and this value is
eventually used in the free path, where the original total size should be
used instead.

To fix it, add a new member in m3_mem_region structure to track the original
memory size and use it in free path.

Tested-on: WCN7850 hw2.0 PCI WLAN.HMT.1.1.c5-00302-QCAHMTSWPL_V1.0_V2.0_SILICONZ-1.115823.3
