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,

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.
