EAP exchanges may take a long time to reach a final status, especially when relying upon MAC Authentication Bypass (MAB). Our current behaviour of sending EAPoL-Start every few seconds until a final status is obtained can prevent these exchanges from ever completing. Fix by redefining the EAP supplicant state to allow EAPoL-Start to be suppressed: either temporarily (while waiting for a full EAP exchange to complete, in which case we need to eventually resend EAPoL-Start if the final Success or Failure packet is lost), or permanently (while waiting for the potentially very long MAC Authentication Bypass timeout period).
