Synchronous initialization functions for the WILC driver.

This function initializes the driver by, registering the call back function for M2M_WIFI layer (also the call back function for monitoring mode if defined),
initializing the host interface layer and the bus interfaces.
Wi-Fi callback registering is essential to allow the handling of the events received, in response to the asynchronous wi-fi operations.
Following are the possible wi-fi events that are expected to be received through the call back function(provided by the application) to the M2M_WIFI layer are :
M2M_WIFI_RESP_CON_STATE_CHANGED
M2M_WIFI_RESP_CONN_INFO
M2M_WIFI_RES_WPS
M2M_WIFI_RESP_SCAN_DONE
M2M_WIFI_RESP_SCAN_RESULT
M2M_WIFI_RESP_CURRENT_RSSI
M2M_WIFI_RESP_DEFAULT_CONNECT
M2M_WIFI_RESP_ETHERNET_RX_PACKET Example:
In case Monitoring mode is used:
M2M_WIFI_RESP_WIFI_RX_PACKET

Any application using the WILC driver must call this function at the start of its main function.

NMI_API sint8 m2m_wifi_init ( tstrWifiInitParam param)

Synchronous API to initialize the WINC driver.

Parameters
[in]pWifiInitParamThis is a pointer to the tstrWifiInitParam structure which holds the pointer to the application WIFI layer call back function, monitoring mode call back and tstrEthInitParam strucutre.
Precondition
Prior to this function call, application users must provide a call back function responsible for receiving all the wi-fi events that are received on the M2M_WIFI layer.
Warning
Failure to successfully complete function indicates that the driver couldn't be initialized and a fatal error will prevent the application from proceeding.

Returns
The function returns M2M_SUCCESS for successful operations and a negative value otherwise.
This function initializes the WINC driver by registering the callback function for the M2M_WIFI layer
(also the callback function for bypass mode/monitoring mode if defined), initializing the host
interface layer and the bus interfaces. Wi-Fi callback registering is essential to allow the
handling of the events received, in response to the asynchronous Wi-Fi operations.

The possible Wi-Fi events that are expected to be received through the callback
function (provided by the application) to the M2M_WIFI layer are listed below:

 - @ref M2M_WIFI_RESP_CON_STATE_CHANGED
 - @ref M2M_WIFI_RESP_CONN_INFO
 - @ref M2M_WIFI_REQ_DHCP_CONF
 - @ref M2M_WIFI_REQ_WPS
 - @ref M2M_WIFI_RESP_IP_CONFLICT
 - @ref M2M_WIFI_RESP_SCAN_DONE
 - @ref M2M_WIFI_RESP_SCAN_RESULT
 - @ref M2M_WIFI_RESP_CURRENT_RSSI
 - @ref M2M_WIFI_RESP_CLIENT_INFO
 - @ref M2M_WIFI_RESP_PROVISION_INFO
 - @ref M2M_WIFI_RESP_DEFAULT_CONNECT
 - @ref M2M_WIFI_RESP_ETHERNET_RX_PACKET (if bypass mode is enabled)
 - @ref M2M_WIFI_RESP_WIFI_RX_PACKET (if monitoring mode is enabled)

Any application using the WINC driver must call this function at the start of its main function.
Parameters
[in]pWifiInitParamThis is a pointer to a structure of type tstrWifiInitParam which contains pointers to the application WIFI layer callback function, monitoring mode callback and tstrEthInitParam structure (which contains initialization settings for bypass mode).
Returns
The function returns M2M_SUCCESS for successful operations and a negative value otherwise.
Precondition
Prior to this function call, The application should initialize the BSP using nm_bsp_init. Also, application users must provide a call back function responsible for receiving all the wi-fi events that are received on the M2M_WIFI layer.
Warning
Failure to successfully complete indicates that the driver could not be initialized and a fatal error will prevent the application from proceeding, proper error handling should be implemented by the application.
