Zero-length arrays are deprecated[1]. Replace struct
mlxsw_sp_nexthop_group_info's "nexthops" 0-length array with a flexible
array. Detected with GCC 13, using -fstrict-flex-arrays=3:

drivers/net/ethernet/mellanox/mlxsw/spectrum_router.c: In function 'mlxsw_sp_nexthop_group_hash_obj':
drivers/net/ethernet/mellanox/mlxsw/spectrum_router.c:3278:38: warning: array subscript i is outside array bounds of 'struct mlxsw_sp_nexthop[0]' [-Warray-bounds=]
3278 | val ^= jhash(&nh->ifindex, sizeof(nh->ifindex), seed);
| ^~~~~~~~~~~~
drivers/net/ethernet/mellanox/mlxsw/spectrum_router.c:2954:33: note: while referencing 'nexthops'
2954 | struct mlxsw_sp_nexthop nexthops[0];
| ^~~~~~~~
