Xiaomi Poco F3 no showing as WiFi 6 enabled in "About" submenu #379

Describe the bug Xiaomi Poco F3 device not showing as WiFi 6 enabled so user cannot be sure if WiFi 6 scanning is working or not.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behaviour:

  1. Go to 'hamburger menu'
  2. Click on 'About'
  3. Scroll down to 'Device info'

Expected behavior This is Snapdragon 870 powered phone so it has support for Wifi 6. First, there should be a green tick next to phone model in "About". If i need to provide you with any data to whitelist device, please do tell.

Second, maybe more important, do not expose 6GHz data in "Channel graph" on non-supported devices. So hide all Wifi 6 related stuff if device is not supporting that tech. It is simple: now i cannot conclude if my device is not supported by the program or it is but there are no WiFi 6 networks around me.

I have another Android 11 device which has snapdragon 730 and I can open WiFi 6 related stuff even tho that chipset is not supporting that technology.

Provide Device/Android OS information Android 12, Miui 13.0.6.0 WiFiAnalyzer 3.0.6 - 58S (11-30) from F-Droid
