gcc-plugins: randstruct: Only warn about true flexible arrays

The randstruct GCC plugin tried to discover "fake" flexible arrays
to issue warnings about them in randomized structs. In the future
LSM overhead reduction series, it would be legal to have a randomized
struct with a 1-element array, and this should _not_ be treated as a
flexible array, especially since commit df8fc4e9 ("kbuild: Enable
-fstrict-flex-arrays=3"). Disable the 0-sized and 1-element array
discovery logic in the plugin, but keep the "true" flexible array check.
