P2P: Stop any on-going "p2p_find" on creating an Autonomous GO

This patch stops any on-going "p2p_find" on creating an Autonomous GO.
This is already taken care in case of invoking a persistent GO. GO as
such will be advertising via the beacons for other devices to discover.
So normally the GO doesn't need to do a p2p_find until and unless it
wants to invite a P2P Client. In case of Invite scenario, logically it
is better to do a explicit discover [via user intervention] after the GO
is created. This patch will help to reduce battery wastage [due to
p2p_find operations] in scenarios where user creates a GO and doesn't
initiate a connection.
