[PATCH v3] xen/public: fix flexible array definitions



Flexible arrays in public headers can be problematic with some
compilers.

With XEN_FLEX_ARRAY_DIM there is a mechanism available to deal with
this issue, but care must be taken to not change the affected structs
in an incompatible way.

So bump __XEN_LATEST_INTERFACE_VERSION__ and introduce a new macro
XENPV_FLEX_ARRAY_DIM which will be XENPV_FLEX_ARRAY_DIM with the
interface version being new enough and "1" (the value used today in
the affected headers) when the interface version is an old one.

Replace the arr[1] instances (this includes the ones seen to be
problematic in recent Linux kernels [1]) with arr[XENPV_FLEX_ARRAY_DIM]
in order to avoid compilation errors.
