 monitor

Hi Howard,

> Disable duplicates filter when scanning for advertisement monitor for
> the following reasons. The scanning includes active scan and passive
> scan.
> 
> For HW pattern filtering (ex. MSFT), Realtek and Qualcomm controllers
> ignore RSSI_Sampling_Period when the duplicates filter is enabled.
> 
> For SW pattern filtering, when we're not doing interleaved scanning, it
> is necessary to disable duplicates filter, otherwise hosts can only
> receive one advertisement and it's impossible to know if a peer is still
> in range.
