bpf: Replace 0-length arrays with flexible arrays



Zero-length arrays are deprecated [1]. Replace struct bpf_array's union
of 0-length arrays with flexible arrays. Detected with GCC 13, by using
-fstrict-flex-arrays=3:

  arch/x86/net/bpf_jit_comp.c: In function 'bpf_tail_call_direct_fixup':
  arch/x86/net/bpf_jit_comp.c:606:37: warning: array subscript <unknown> is outside array bounds of 'void *[0]' [-Warray-bounds=]
    606 |                 target = array->ptrs[poke->tail_call.key];
