wifi: mt76: disable napi on driver removal
A warning on driver removal started occurring after commit 9dd05df8403b
("net: warn if NAPI instance wasn't shut down"). Disable tx napi before
deleting it in mt76_dma_cleanup().

Tested with mt7921e but the same pattern can be actually applied to other
mt76 drivers calling mt76_dma_cleanup() during removal. Tx napi is enabled
in their *_dma_init() functions and only toggled off and on again inside
their suspend/resume/reset paths. So it should be okay to disable tx
napi in such a generic way.
