Subject: [PATCH][next] cxgb4: 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.

So, in order to avoid ending up with a flexible-array member in the
middle of multiple other structs, we use the `__struct_group()`
helper to create a new tagged `struct tc_u32_sel_hdr`. This structure
groups together all the members of the flexible `struct tc_u32_sel`
except the flexible array.

As a result, the array is effectively separated from the rest of the
members without modifying the memory layout of the flexible structure.
We then change the type of the middle struct member currently causing
trouble from `struct tc_u32_sel` to `struct tc_u32_sel_hdr`.

This approach avoids having to implement `struct tc_u32_sel_hdr`
as a completely separate structure, thus preventing having to maintain
two independent but basically identical structures, closing the door
to potential bugs in the future.

So, with these changes, fix the following warning:
drivers/net/ethernet/chelsio/cxgb4/cxgb4_tc_u32_parse.h:245:27: warning: structure containing a flexible array member is not at the end of another structure [-Wflex-array-member-not-at-end]
