mwifiex: fix association issue with AP configured in hidden SSID mode
Firmware expects 'max_ssid_length' field in 'struct mwifiex_ie_types_wildcard_ssid_params' to be '0' for performing SSID specific scan. Currently driver updates it with an actual SSID length. Hence UUT is not able to find the AP configured in hidden SSID mode in scan results and association fails. max_ssid_length is filled with '0' to fix the issue.
