linux-postmarketos-qcom-sdm670: upgrade to v6.12.3

The Linux stable team merged v6.12 into linux-rolling-stable as of Thursday, so here's a new release.

---

This release cycle was very quiet with small fixes.

The ttynull driver was enabled in the configuration to fix a bug where userspace would start with no stdio open.

A patch that made the fuel gauge driver compatible with v6.10 was dropped.

Patches from MSM8916 and MSM8953 were re-picked, to include the change from strlcpy to strscpy and to remove duplicate q6voice entries in a Makefile.

Some flashlight and charging patches were staged.

The thermal nodes were sorted by the thermal sensor to match other platforms.

Bluetooth, camera, call audio, display, USB, I2C, eMMC, modem, video acceleration, WiFi, haptics, NFC, sensors, and touchscreen should work and be slightly broken like before.
