bpf: Avoid gcc-10 stringop-overflow warning in struct bpf_prog

gcc-10 warns about accesses to zero-length arrays:

kernel/bpf/core.c: In function 'bpf_patch_insn_single':
cc1: warning: writing 8 bytes into a region of size 0 [-Wstringop-overflow=]
In file included from kernel/bpf/core.c:21:
include/linux/filter.h:550:20: note: at offset 0 to object 'insnsi' with size 0 declared here
  550 |   struct bpf_insn  insnsi[0];
      |                    ^~~~~~

In this case, we really want to have two flexible-array members,
but that is not possible. Removing the union to make insnsi a
flexible-array member while leaving insns as a zero-length array
fixes the warning, as nothing writes to the other one in that way.

This trick only works on linux-3.18 or higher, as older versions
had additional members in the union.

Fixes: 60a3b225 ("net: bpf: make eBPF interpreter images read-only")
