clk: qcom: gcc-ipq6018: fix terminating of frequency table arrays

The frequency table arrays are supposed to be terminated with an empty element. Add such entry to the end of the arrays where it is missing in order to avoid possible out-of-bound access when the table is traversed by functions like qcomfindfreq() or qcomfindfreqfloor().

Only compile tested.
