To be honest, at this stage, I'm a little worried about getting the logic right. If someone managed to have a piece of code that works in the installed system, I could look into doing whatever is needed to get it to work inside d-i (dealing with Makefiles, build systems, linking against libnl or whatever). If someone had reference(s) of external adapters I could easily shop for and get delivered to France, that would make the feedback loop shorter (I'd be able to hack and build and test, instead of hacking and building, then asking others to test).
I may be missing something so correct me if I am wrong but IMO you do not need Wi-Fi 7 hardware to test: you can disable the current check which uses wext in is_wireless_iface() and use any wireless adapter whose driver uses nl80211. AFAICS since Linux 6.8 all in-kernel wireless drivers depend on cfg80211/mac80211.
