pid: Replace struct pid 1-element array with flex-array
For pid namespaces, struct pid uses a dynamically sized array member, "numbers". This was implemented using the ancient 1-element fake flexible array, which has been deprecated for decades. Replace it with a C99 flexible array, refactor the array size calculations to use struct_size(), and address elements via indexes. Note that the static initializer (which defines a single element) works as-is, and requires no special handling. Without this, CONFIG_UBSAN_BOUNDS (and potentially CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE) will trigger bounds checks: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20230517-bushaltestelle-super-e223978c1ba6@brauner Cc: Christian Brauner <brauner@kernel.org> Cc: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz> Cc: Jeff Xu <jeffxu@google.com> Cc: Andreas Gruenbacher <agruenba@redhat.com> Cc: Daniel Verkamp <dverkamp@chromium.org> Cc: "Paul E.
