Nouveau - Mar 2025 - [PATCH][next] drm/nouveau/outp: Avoid -Wflex-array-member-not-at-end warning

-Wflex-array-member-not-at-end was introduced in GCC-14, and we are
getting ready to enable it, globally.

Use the `DEFINE_RAW_FLEX()` helper for an on-stack definition of
a flexible structure where the size of the flexible-array member
is known at compile-time, and refactor the rest of the code,
accordingly.

So, with these changes, fix the following warning:

drivers/gpu/drm/nouveau/nvif/outp.c:199:45: warning: structure containing a
flexible array member is not at the end of another structure
[-Wflex-array-member-not-at-end]

Seems a bit unfortunate that the size is duplicated here.

Can we have an accessor macro to derive the size for us?

	union {
		u8 bytes[struct_size_t(type, member, count)];
		type obj;
	} name##_u initializer;

Maybe a macro that returns the size difference between bytes and obj?
