[PATCH -next 3/4] ima: Use DECLARE_FLEX_ARRAY() helper in ima_policy

Zero-length arrays are deprecated and we are moving towards adopting
C99 flexible-array members instead. So, replace zero-length array
declaration with the new DECLARE_FLEX_ARRAY() helper macro in struct
ima_rule_opt_list.

This helper allows for a flexible-array member in a union.
