[PATCH v3] netfilter: ebtables: fix fortify warnings in size_entry_mwt()

[GONG, Ruiqi]

From: "GONG, Ruiqi" <gongruiqi1@huawei.com>

When compiling with gcc 13 and CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE=y, the following
warning appears:

In function ‘fortify_memcpy_chk’,
    inlined from ‘size_entry_mwt’ at net/bridge/netfilter/ebtables.c:2118:2:
./include/linux/fortify-string.h:592:25: error: call to ‘__read_overflow2_field’
declared with attribute warning: detected read beyond size of field (2nd parameter);
maybe use struct_group()? [-Werror=attribute-warning]
  592 |                         __read_overflow2_field(q_size_field, size);
      |                         ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The compiler is complaining:

memcpy(&offsets[1], &entry->watchers_offset,
                       sizeof(offsets) - sizeof(offsets[0]));

where memcpy reads beyong &entry->watchers_offset to copy
{watchers,target,next}_offset altogether into offsets[]. Silence the
warning by wrapping these three up via struct_group().

v3: use sizeof(entry->offsets) as memcpy()'s size, as Gustavo suggested.

v2: fix HDRTEST error by replacing struct_group() with __struct_group(),
since it's a uapi header.

nit: beyong -> beyond

If a v4 is sent, please fix the "beyong" typo that was pointed out.
Otherwise, it looks okay to me:
