Prepare for the coming implementation by GCC and Clang of the
__counted_by attribute. Flexible array members annotated with
__counted_by can have their accesses bounds-checked at run-time
via CONFIG_UBSAN_BOUNDS (for array indexing) and CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE
(for strcpy/memcpy-family functions).
Also, -Wflex-array-member-not-at-end is coming in GCC-14, and we are
getting ready to enable it globally.
So, use the `DEFINE_FLEX()` helper for an on-stack definition of
a flexible structure where the size of the flexible-array member
is known at compile-time, and refactor the rest of the code,
accordingly.
So, with these changes, fix the following warning:
drivers/net/wireless/ath/wil6210/cfg80211.c:896:43: warning: structure containing a flexible array member is not at the end of another structure [-Wflex-array-member-not-at-end]
