WiFi join on RPi Pico W is Ok even if password is wrong

[erichstuder]

Hello

With the latest main branch (and also older versions) joining to a Network returns Ok even if the password is wrong.
Although I haven't used this exact example, it should happen here as well:
examples/rp/src/bin/wifi_tcp_server.rs

I don't fully understand it.
But I think the reason could be, that some intermediate states are "lagged"?
(see next_message_pure() in embassy-sync/src/pubsub/subscriber.rs)

Is this behavior intentional?

it's definitely not intentional, i've already seen it before.

The reason is join waits for the wrong event I think. It's waiting for some event when "associated" which fires even with the wrong password, then there's later events that only fire after successful authentication.
