mac80211: ath11k: fix for unsupported 11ax EDCA

Currently publicly available firmware for ath11k does not support
the 11ax EDCA parameter.
Skipping sending this parameter allows the use of STA mode.

Subject: [PATCH] wifi: ath11k: Fix the WMM param type
Since FW does not support the 11ax EDCA parameter in WMI TLV command.
FW was crashing as host was sending this parameter, now changed the
WMM parameter type as default zero before sending to FW.
