 * @brief Multi-Link Discovery & Setup test.
 *
 * This test sets up an AP MLD and a non-AP MLD having a variable number of links.
 * The RF channels to set each link to are provided as input parameters through the test
 * case constructor, along with the identifiers (starting at 0) of the links that cannot
 * switch PHY band (if any). The links that are expected to be setup are also provided as input
 * parameters. This test verifies that the management frames exchanged during ML discovery
 * and ML setup contain the expected values and that the two MLDs setup the expected links.
 *
 * The negotiated TID-to-link mapping is tested by verifying that generated QoS data frames of
 * a given TID are transmitted on links which the TID is mapped to. Specifically, the following
 * operations are performed separately for each direction (downlink and uplink). A first TID
 * is searched such that it is not mapped on all the setup links. If no such TID is found, only
 * QoS frames of TID 0 are generated. Otherwise, we also search for a second TID that is mapped
 * to a link set that is disjoint with the link set to which the first TID is mapped. If such a
 * TID is found, QoS frames of both the first TID and the second TID are generated; otherwise,
 * only QoS frames of the first TID are generated. For each TID, a number of QoS frames equal
 * to the number of setup links is generated. For each TID, we check that the first N QoS frames,
 * where N is the size of the link set to which the TID is mapped, are transmitted concurrently,
 * while the following QoS frames are sent after the first QoS frame sent on the same link. We
 * also check that all the QoS frames are sent on a link belonging to the link set to which the
 * TID is mapped. If QoS frames of two TIDs are generated, we also check that the first N QoS
 * frames of a TID, where N is the size of the link set to which that TID is mapped, are sent
 * concurrently with the first M QoS frames of the other TID, where M is the size of the link
 * set to which the other TID is mapped.

 * In this test, an AP MLD and a non-AP MLD setup 2 links. The AP MLD has a QoS data frame to
 * transmit to the non-AP MLD, which triggers the establishment of a BA agreement. When the ADDBA
 * Request frame is received by the non-AP MLD, transmissions of the non-AP MLD are blocked to put
 * the transmission of the ADDBA Response on hold. The goal is to mimic a delay in getting channel
 * access due to, e.g., other devices grabbing the medium. When the ADDBA Response timer at the AP
 * MLD expires, transmissions of the non-AP MLD are unblocked, so that the AP MLD sends the QoS data
 * frame (protected by RTS, but the test works without RTS as well, and using Normal acknowledgment)
 * on one link and the non-AP MLD sends the ADDBA Response on the other link. The transmission of
 * the QoS data frame is then corrupted. We verify that:
 *
 * - when the AP MLD receives the ADDBA Response, the BA starting sequence number is set to the
 *   sequence number of the QoS data frame which is inflight
 * - the QoS data frame is retransmitted and received by the non-AP MLD
