Subject: [PATCH][next] drm/amdgpu/discovery: Replace fake flex-arrays with
 flexible-array members

Zero-length and one-element arrays are deprecated, and we are moving
towards adopting C99 flexible-array members, instead.

Use the DECLARE_FLEX_ARRAY() helper macro to transform zero-length
arrays in a union into flexible-array members. And replace a one-element
array with a C99 flexible-array member.

Address the following warnings found with GCC-13 and
-fstrict-flex-arrays=3 enabled:
drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/amdgpu_discovery.c:1009:89: warning: array subscript kk is outside array bounds of ‘uint32_t[0]’ {aka ‘unsigned int[]’} [-Warray-bounds=]
drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/amdgpu_discovery.c:1007:94: warning: array subscript kk is outside array bounds of ‘uint64_t[0]’ {aka ‘long long unsigned int[]’} [-Warray-bounds=]
drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/amdgpu_discovery.c:1310:94: warning: array subscript k is outside array bounds of ‘uint64_t[0]’ {aka ‘long long unsigned int[]’} [-Warray-bounds=]
drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/amdgpu_discovery.c:1309:57: warning: array subscript k is outside array bounds of ‘uint32_t[0]’ {aka ‘unsigned int[]’} [-Warray-bounds=]

This helps with the ongoing efforts to tighten the FORTIFY_SOURCE
routines on memcpy() and help us make progress towards globally
enabling -fstrict-flex-arrays=3 [1].

This results in no differences in binary output.
