drm/nouveau: Avoid multiple -Wflex-array-member-not-at-end warnings

Browse source

-Wflex-array-member-not-at-end was introduced in GCC-14, and we are
getting ready to enable it, globally.

So, in order to avoid ending up with flexible-array members in the
middle of other structs, we use the `struct_group_tagged()` helper
to separate the flexible arrays from the rest of the members in the
flexible structures. We then use the newly created tagged `struct
nvif_ioctl_v0_hdr` and `struct nvif_ioctl_mthd_v0_hdr` to replace the
type of the objects causing trouble in multiple structures.

We also want to ensure that when new members need to be added to the
flexible structures, they are always included within the newly created
tagged structs. For this, we use `static_assert()`. This ensures that the
memory layout for both the flexible structure and the new tagged struct
is the same after any changes.

So, with these changes, fix the following warnings:
drivers/gpu/drm/nouveau/nvif/object.c:60:38: warning: structure containing a flexible array member is not at the end of another structure [-Wflex-array-member-not-at-end]
