scsi: message: fusion: Replace one-element array with flexible-array member

Browse Source 
There is a regular need in the kernel to provide a way to declare having a
dynamically sized set of trailing elements in a structure. Kernel code
should always use "flexible array members"[1] for these cases. The older
style of one-element or zero-length arrays should no longer be used[2].

Also, this helps with the ongoing efforts to enable -Warray-bounds by
fixing the following warning:

drivers/message/fusion/mptbase.c: In function ‘mptbase_reply’:
drivers/message/fusion/mptbase.c:7747:62: warning: array subscript 1 is above array bounds of ‘U32[1]’ {aka ‘unsigned int[1]’} [-Warray-bounds]
 7747 |     ioc->events[idx].data[ii] = le32_to_cpu(pEventReply->Data[ii]);
./include/uapi/linux/byteorder/little_endian.h:34:51: note: in definition of macro ‘__le32_to_cpu’
   34 | #define __le32_to_cpu(x) ((__force __u32)(__le32)(x))
      |                                                   ^
drivers/message/fusion/mptbase.c:7747:33: note: in expansion of macro ‘le32_to_cpu’
 7747 |     ioc->events[idx].data[ii] = le32_to_cpu(pEventReply->Data[ii]);
