[PATCH][next] xfs: Replace one-element arrays with flexible-array members

[Gustavo A. R. Silva]

One-element arrays are deprecated, and we are replacing them with flexible
array members instead. So, replace one-element arrays with flexible-array
members in structures xfs_attr_leaf_name_local and
xfs_attr_leaf_name_remote.

The only binary differences reported after the changes are all like
these:

      3fc:      mov    %ebx,%eax

similar changes in fs/xfs/scrub/attr.o and fs/xfs/xfs.o object files.

And the reason for this is because of the round_up() macro called in
functions xfs_attr_leaf_entsize_remote() and xfs_attr_leaf_entsize_local(),
which is compensanting for the one-byte reduction in size (due to the
flex-array transformation) of structures xfs_attr_leaf_name_remote and
xfs_attr_leaf_name_local. So, sizes remain the same before and after
changes.

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].
