Subject: [PATCH v1] Bluetooth: btnxpuart: Enable flow control before checking boot signature

This enables flow control before checking for bootloader signature and
deciding whether FW download is needed or not. In case of V1 bootloader
chips w8987 and w8997, it is observed that if WLAN FW is downloaded first
and power save is enabled in wlan core, bootloader signatures are not
emitted by the BT core when the chip is put to sleep. This results in BT
FW download timeout error. By enabling the flow control, the host enables
its RTS pin, and an interrupt in chip's UART peripheral causes the
bootloader to wakeup, enabling the bootloader signatures, which then helps
in downloading the bluetooth FW file.
