wifi: ath12k: fix out-of-bound access of qmi_invoke_handler()

Currently, there is no terminator entry for ath12k_qmi_msg_handlers hence
facing below KASAN warning,

 ==================================================================
 BUG: KASAN: global-out-of-bounds in qmi_invoke_handler+0xa4/0x148
 Read of size 8 at addr ffffffd00a6428d8 by task kworker/u8:2/1273

 CPU: 0 PID: 1273 Comm: kworker/u8:2 Not tainted 5.4.213 #0

 The address belongs to the variable:
  ath12k_mac_mon_status_filter_default+0x4bd8/0xfffffffffffe2300 [ath12k]
 [...]
 ==================================================================

Add a dummy terminator entry at the end to assist the qmi_invoke_handler()
in traversing up to the terminator entry without accessing an
out-of-boundary index.
