[PATCH][next] wifi: wil6210: wmi: Use __counted_by() in struct wmi_set_link_monitor_cmd and avoid -Wfamnae warning

[Gustavo A. R. Silva]

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/wmi.c:4018:49: warning: structure containing a flexible array member is not at the end of another structure [-Wflex-array-member-not-at-end]

That DEFINE_FLEX() macro takes a bit of time to understand! But I finally
digested it so...
