[PULL V2 15/17] hw/net/rocker: Avoid variable length array

[Jason Wang <jasowang@redhat.com>]

From: Peter Maydell <peter.maydell@linaro.org>

Replace an on-stack variable length array in of_dpa_ig() with
a g_autofree heap allocation.

The codebase has very few VLAs, and if we can get rid of them all we
can make the compiler error on new additions.  This is a defensive
measure against security bugs where an on-stack dynamic allocation
isn't correctly size-checked (e.g.  CVE-2021-3527).
