Add terminated list for keeping descriptor so that it could be freed in
worker without any potential involving next descriptor raised up before
this descriptor freed, because vchan_get_all_descriptors get all
descriptors including the last terminated descriptor and the next
descriptor, hence, the next descriptor maybe freed unexpectly when it's
done in worker without this patch.
