smb3: Replace smb2pdu 1-element arrays with flex-arrays

The kernel is globally removing the ambiguous 0-length and 1-element
arrays in favor of flexible arrays, so that we can gain both compile-time
and run-time array bounds checking[1].

Replace the trailing 1-element array with a flexible array in the
following structures:

	struct smb2_err_rsp
	struct smb2_tree_connect_req
	struct smb2_negotiate_rsp
	struct smb2_sess_setup_req
	struct smb2_sess_setup_rsp
	struct smb2_read_req
	struct smb2_read_rsp
	struct smb2_write_req
	struct smb2_write_rsp
	struct smb2_query_directory_req
	struct smb2_query_directory_rsp
	struct smb2_set_info_req
	struct smb2_change_notify_rsp
	struct smb2_create_rsp
	struct smb2_query_info_req
	struct smb2_query_info_rsp

Replace the trailing 1-element array with a flexible array, but leave
the existing structure padding:

	struct smb2_file_all_info
	struct smb2_lock_req

Adjust all related size calculations to match the changes to sizeof().

No machine code output or .data section differences are produced after
these changes.
