media: venus: hfi_cmds: Replace fake flex-array with flexible-array member

One-element arrays are deprecated, and we are replacing them with flexible
array members instead. So, replace one-element arrays with flexible-array
members in struct hfi_sys_set_resource_pkt, and refactor the rest of
the code, accordingly.

This helps with the ongoing efforts to tighten the FORTIFY_SOURCE
routines on memcpy() and help us make progress towards globally
enabling -fstrict-flex-arrays=3 [1].

The only binary differences seen before/after changes are the
following:

     17ba:      mov    %rbx,%rdi
     17bd:      call   17c2 <pkt_sys_set_resource+0x42>
                        17be: R_X86_64_PLT32    __tsan_write4-0x4
-    17c2:      movl   $0x14,(%rbx)
+    17c2:      movl   $0x10,(%rbx)
     17c8:      lea    0x4(%rbx),%rdi
     17cc:      call   17d1 <pkt_sys_set_resource+0x51>
                        17cd: R_X86_64_PLT32    __tsan_write4-0x4

which is expected once this accounts for the following line of code
at  drivers/media/platform/qcom/venus/hfi_cmds.c:73

73         pkt->hdr.size = sizeof(*pkt);

and as *pkt is of type struct hfi_sys_set_resource_pkt, sizeof(*pkt) is
reduced by 4 bytes, due to the flex-array transformation.
