-Wflex-array-member-not-at-end is coming in GCC-14, and we are getting
ready to enable it globally.

There is currently a local structure `u` that is using a flexible
`struct fw_iso_packet` as header for an on-stack array `u8 header[256]`.

struct {
        struct fw_iso_packet packet;
        u8 header[256];
} u;

However, we are deprecating flexible arrays in the middle of another
struct. So, in order to avoid this, we use the `struct_group_tagged()`
helper to separate the flexible array from the rest of the members in
the flexible structure:

struct fw_iso_packet {
        struct_group_tagged(fw_iso_packet_hdr, hdr,
                ... the rest of the members
        );
        u32 header[];           /* tx: Top of 1394 isoch. data_block    */
};

With the change described above, we can now declare an object of the
type of the tagged struct, without embedding the flexible array in the
middle of another struct:

struct {
        struct fw_iso_packet_hdr packet;
        u8 header[256];
} u;

We also use `container_of()` whenever we need to retrieve a pointer to
the flexible structure, through which the flexible-array member can be
accessed, as in this case.

So, with these changes, fix the following warning:

drivers/firewire/core-cdev.c: In function ‘ioctl_queue_iso’:
drivers/firewire/core-cdev.c:1129:38: warning: structure containing a flexible 
array member is not at the end of another structure 
[-Wflex-array-member-not-at-end]
 1129 |                 struct fw_iso_packet packet;
      |                                      ^~~~~~
